Bon Appetit: Food Business Forum & Vendor Fair – October 2024
Calling All Restaurant Owners, Food Truck Vendors, Caterers and others in the Food Industry to Join Us!
If you’re in the food industry and you’re interested in Doing Business with the City of Norfolk, join us for our second Food Business Forum & Vendor Fair.
The forum will serve as a mini conference for food-based businesses to learn about what is needed to start and grow a food enterprise in the City of Norfolk. The reverse vendor fair will connect small, minority-owned, and women-owned food-based businesses with internal city departments that do the most buying of goods and services.
Topics for the Vendor Fair include:
• Contract opportunities
• Small business start & growth support
• SWAM certification assistance
• Connecting with other food based businesses
Bon Appetit!
