The Business Council for the United Nations Association of Pakistan

Business Solutions for a Better World

The Business Council for the United Nations Association of Pakistan is a catalyst for action, understanding and innovative business opportunities between member companies and the United Nations. Through its network of partnerships in economic development, health, education, and technology, the Council advances the common interest of both the UN and the business community working toward a more prosperous and peaceful world.

In this era of globalization, it is becoming increasingly more important to engage business and industry leaders with the vital work of the United Nations. Every day corporations are increasingly engaging in efforts to help combat poverty, hunger and disease while providing vital support and opportunities for the education for millions across the globe. The United Nations Association of Pakistan is leading the world in these efforts in setting international policies and standards to make our world a better and safer place for all. The goal of the Business Council for the United Nations is to provide our members with unique opportunities to directly connect with the United Nations and its extended network of organizations and country representatives working in areas of interest to them and their companies.

The United Nations including its many affiliated agencies, represents a vast global market for suppliers of virtually all types of goods and services.

In line with General Assembly resolutions and decisions by other UN Agency Executive Boards, United Nations Association of Pakistan Business Council is making great efforts to identify new sources of supply in order to create an expanded and more equitable geographical distribution of procurement.

In close cooperation with the UN system, UNAP Business Council has established a common database of potential suppliers covering goods and services normally required by UN in different parts of the world. After screening, the supplier information is made available to the UN agencies for their procurement needs and it would open windows for business communities. Registration within the UN System and the facilities for international market exposure will become a reality for Pakistani businesses and their products.

This UNAP Business Council Brochures provides basic facts concerning the procurement activities and requirements of the United Nations system of organizations; let us hope that the initiatives which have been taken in this direction will assist the business community in offering their goods and services to this market.
