The company has a social mandate to increase Indigenous influence in the healthcare supply chain

MSS Medical Surgical & Safety supplies, a Northwest Territories based company, is giving a portion of its profits to Lheildi T’enneh First Nation in the name of reconciliation.

MSS president James Hiebert, who is a member of Turtle Clan Mohawk Nation, presented Lheidli T’enneh Chief Dolleen Logan with a social benefit cheque for $15,000 as the first payment in their new partnership. “The way MSS works is we partner with Indigenous bands, and we do business in their regions across Canada, and then we share in the new revenues with the bands,” said Hiebert.

This is the second partnership agreement the company has announced. The first is with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation based in the Niagara region of Ontario.“We felt that partnering with the host bands would give us the most influence in the health care system and we felt that Lheidli T’enneh was a great fit after we met with the nation and the chief.
