Our Commitment

Gilead’s success depends on our ability to collaborate with suppliers worldwide. As part of our procurement and supply-chain strategy, we employ responsible sourcing, supplier inclusion, auditing procedures, green chemistry and sustainable manufacturing and distribution principles to minimize the impact from our procurement and supply chain practices.

We strive to work with suppliers that share our values related to social, economic and environmental performance. If your company is able to demonstrate your ability to provide quality goods and services at a fair price and commitment to social and environmental responsibilities, we welcome the opportunity to work with you and include you in our success story.

What We Buy

Gilead purchases goods and services that include but are not limited to creative and advertising services, construction services, facilities operations and supplies, IT hardware, software and consulting services, lab equipment and supplies, logistics and distribution services, manufacturing raw materials and services, market research, pre-clinical services, print services, real estate, staffing and consulting services and travel services.

Gilead is always looking for suppliers that offer innovative, quality products and services.

Responsible Sourcing

Gilead does not condone either the use of slavery or human trafficking or discrimination based on race, color, gender, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. Gilead endeavors to select suppliers who share our ethical standards and demonstrate compliance with applicable local laws.

Manufacturing and Distribution

Gilead uses a combination of company-owned facilities and strategic third-party partners to manufacture and distribute products worldwide. With manufacturing sites located in the U.S., Canada and Ireland, our Pharmaceutical Development and Manufacturing group is committed to reducing the environmental impact associated with manufacturing our products.

Gilead’s suppliers for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug products must observe Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) regulations as required by the FDA and other relevant health authorities worldwide. GMP covers all aspects of production including manufacturing procedures, testing methods, maintenance of premises and equipment, training, personal hygiene of staff and appropriate documentation.

Supplier Code of Conduct

At Gilead, we're committed to maintaining the highest standards of legal and ethical conduct; we expect the same of our suppliers. Our Supplier Code of Conduct reflects the business practices and principles of behavior that support our commitment and should be considered against the backdrop of Gilead’s corporate core values of Integrity, Teamwork, Accountability, Inclusion and Excellence. We expect every supplier to read, understand and agree to the Code and its application to the performance of their supplier responsibilities.

The integrity and reputation of Gilead depends on the honesty, fairness and integrity of not only our employees but the suppliers and third parties that help support our day-to-day activities. In addition to complying with applicable laws, each of us is required to apply common sense, together with our own highest personal ethical standards, in making business decisions where there is no stated guideline in the Supplier Code. Unyielding personal integrity is the foundation of corporate integrity.

Our vision is to become a biopharmaceutical industry leader for supplier inclusion. We're creating and fostering an inclusive and high-performing supply base through which we leverage the unique talents of small businesses and/or businesses owned by women, minorities, LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans and service-disabled veterans.

We build relationships with suppliers that meet our criteria for inclusion and diversity, among other elements of responsible sourcing.
