The ELCIC National Office has established two partnership programs with Buying United for congregations to use to purchase office supplies through Novexco and printing services through Staples.

Buying United is a group purchasing program initiated by the United Church of Canada. The Buying United’s program goals are to have savings in costs based on all participants volumes, to reduce an organizations time to do research on pricing, etc., and to handle customer complaints. The more partners in the program, the better negotiating power Buying United has with suppliers. As a partner with Buying United, ELCIC congregations and affiliate organizations would share in the benefits of the negotiated reduced pricing.
