Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) leverage collective buying power to secure discounts and efficiency for businesses of all sizes, not just large corporations. Common myths—that GPOs restrict choice, lower quality, or take control—are false; reputable GPOs vet suppliers rigorously, maintain member flexibility, and focus on cost savings without sacrificing standards. They are not money-making schemes but legitimate, scalable networks that reduce administrative burdens, broaden supplier access, and adapt as businesses grow. Choosing the right GPO requires assessing needs, researching industry-specific options, checking supplier networks, and reviewing reputation or consulting experts.
