SupplyCore has been awarded the 2026 Gold Military Friendly® Employer and Military Friendly® Spouse Employer designations. The company was also honored with the 2025 HIRE Vets Medallion Award from the U.S. Department of Labor. By meeting the criteria required for a Gold Medallion Award, SupplyCore demonstrated both patriotism and recognition of the value veterans bring to the workplace.
These recognitions highlight SupplyCore’s long-standing dedication to recruiting, hiring, and retaining military veterans and their families. The HIRE Vets Medallion Award is the only federal-level honor for veteran employment, while the Military Friendly® Employer designation is a standard-setter for organizations providing the best opportunities for veterans and their spouses. With these awards, SupplyCore celebrates its comprehensive efforts to build a culture that values the unique skills and experiences of the military community.
“We’re honored to be recognized by VIQTORY and the U.S. Department of Labor for our commitment to hiring veterans,” said Andre Balka, Chief of Staff and VP of Organizational Development at SupplyCore. “Veterans bring invaluable expertise and a passion for serving the warfighter that strengthens our mission to enhance military readiness. Having served themselves, they offer unique insights into the needs of our customers, allowing us to better support military and government operations. By hiring veterans, we not only honor their service – we elevate our entire organization.”
The HIRE Vets Medallion Program recognizes employers who meet rigorous criteria for veteran hiring, retention, and professional development. Similarly, the Military Friendly® Employer survey evaluates companies on their ability to create sustainable and meaningful career paths for veterans. SupplyCore’s history of serving the warfighter is deeply connected to its internal culture, where former service members continue their mission by supporting military readiness of our customers worldwide.
“Earning the Military Friendly® designation is more than a badge; it’s a reflection of deep-rooted values and strategic foresight. These organizations don’t just open doors for veterans, spouses, and service members; they build pathways for lasting impact. Their commitment isn’t performative; it’s transformative. It’s proof that honoring military talent is not only the right thing to do, it’s the smart thing to do,” said Kayla Lopez, Vice President of Memberships, Military Friendly®.
SupplyCore’s supply chain frequently includes veteran-owned and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs). These businesses are critical to SupplyCore’s function as a defense contractor, supplying mission-critical equipment to the U.S. military and federal agencies. SupplyCore further demonstrates its commitment to the nation’s military by supporting community service initiatives and veterans’ organizations at national, regional, and local levels.
SupplyCore will be showcased in the 2026 Military Friendly® Employers Guide in the winter issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine, as well as the Awardees Map on www.hirevets.gov/awards.
