Lowe's commitment to diversity, equality and inclusion is the foundation of our culture and extends to every corner of our company.

Diversity Gives Us Perspective. Inclusion Fosters Growth.​​​​​​​

At Lowe's, we're not all the same. And that's our greatest strength. We draw on the differences in who we are, what we've experienced and how we think because we believe celebrating our differences and valuing every associate makes all of us better. Here at Lowe's we combine our differences to achieve greater results.

We Focus on Diversity and Inclusion ​​​​​​​in Three Areas

Talent

Grow and develop a diverse and representative workforce to help us better understand our customers'​​​​​​​ needs and how best to meet them.

Culture

Foster an inclusive culture that celebrates our differences and recognizes diversity of all kinds as our strength. It allows us to better serve our customers and better support the communities we serve.

Business

Provide better and more diverse services, products and solutions - meeting the diverse needs ​​​​​​​of our customers.

Unconscious Bias Training

As part of our commitment to advancing Diversity and Inclusion, Lowe’s offers unique training opportunities to improve our collective awareness and understanding of issues impacting our associates and customers.

These sessions equip associates and leaders with the ability to define and understand the impact of the different types of biases they may have in their personal and professional lives. 

Lowe’s Supplier Diversity Program

Our supplier diversity program reinforces our commitment to supporting economic development in the diverse communities we serve. When we help underrepresented businesses succeed, we also help generate local jobs, income and tax revenue. We have robust reporting to track our spending with diverse vendors and use that information to appropriately allocate funding in alignment with our goals.

Lowe’s is a member of 15 regional supplier diversity councils, as well as the following organizations and associations that support Lowe’s diversity efforts:
