Endorsed Suppliers

Selected to match your needs for profitability!

In addition to the generous pricing discounts offered by GSG suppliers, members will receive exclusive member-only benefits with OGR’s Endorsed Supplier Program. Endorsed suppliers must meet exact requirements and complete an in-depth review process before an endorsement is granted by the OGR Board. The products awarded an endorsement are identified with the OGR Endorsed Supplier logo. OGR endorses the listed products but not all products offered by the company.

OGR endorsed products/services seek to position your firm most competitively in your marketplace and enhance the profitability of your business. How much can we save you?
