Verified Indigenous local content for your operation

If your site sits on Indigenous territory, community relations are a material risk. Buying from verified Indigenous businesses of the territory is the most direct (and auditable) way to manage it.

The trust wall

Three levels. Each one guarantees more.

Your local-content report is worth only as much as the verification behind it. That is why every business in the directory carries its level in plain sight: never just "Indigenous business".

Level 1 · Registered

Declared identity

The business signed up and declared Indigenous ownership. No documentary verification yet.

Useful for: discovering and sizing the territory's supply.

Level 2 · Certified

Verified identity

At least 50% of capital held by Indigenous owners plus Indigenous administration or legal representation, documentarily verified by the FEi committee. Ownership, management and control: all three at once.

Useful for: reporting Indigenous spend without exposure.

Certified + Audited

Responsible supplier

Legal, labor, operational and integrity compliance audit, with georeferenced territorial ties. Funded by the buyer.

Useful for: onboarding into your supply chain and verified Indigenous local content reporting.
