F.I.T. Programme

Sands China launched its F.I.T. programme for local Macao SME suppliers in April 2017. The programme aims to continue driving procurement between Sands China and local SME suppliers, targeted at both existing and potential Sands China suppliers. With this programme, the company seeks to increase its spend on the three specified categories of local suppliers.

F.I.T. is comprised of three pillars:

  1. Financial Support: An advance payment scheme for local SMEs with limited financial capacity.
  2. Interactive Platform: A robust platform enabling local SMEs to showcase, market and commercialize their products and services to improve procurement success rate and optimize business outcomes.
  3. Training and Development: Capacity-building training modules delivered by the Sands Procurement Academy to prepare local SMEs to work with large-scale global enterprises.
