In Jackson, the city is providing a unique opportunity for vendors and those interested in learning more about departments within the city. On May 6th, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., the Carl Perkins Civic Center will host the inaugural City of Jackson Vendor Expo, which is free to attend.
Zach Polk, Purchasing Director for Jackson, stated that anyone and everyone is invited to this event. “It’s an excellent platform for vendors to directly interact with representatives from various city departments,” said Polk. “You can come in, talk, meet people, you may learn some new things about the city.” The organic approach of face-to-face meetings with people who are doing business in the city is one of the best ways to get new business into an area, according to Polk.
During the expo, attendees will not only have the chance to connect with city departments but also learn about upcoming business opportunities and projects in the city. There is no need to sign up to attend this event; it’s open to everyone. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to connect with city departments and learn more about business opportunities in Jackson!
