JMU's 2019 SWaM Vendor Fair Recap

JMU Procurement Services hosted its 8^th SWaM Vendor Fair last week at the Festival Conference Center. We had 48 SWaM certified vendors exhibit along with our own Madison Print Services, the Harrisonburg Chamber of Commerce, the Augusta Chamber of Commerce, and the Department of Small Business Supplier Diversity. Vendors traveled from Richmond, Northern Virginia, Charlottesville, and some came from as close as Dayton, Bridgewater, and Harrisonburg all to showcase their goods and services to campus! In attendance were repeat attendees, such as RealAccess LLC and Good Printers, that have attended the event multiple times, and first-time vendors such as Appeal Productions and Randy’s Hardware, Inc. Commodities represented by the vendors included Promotional Items & Imprinting Services, Graphic Design Services, Signage, Audio Visual, Medical/Scientific, Facilities & Maintenance, and more. See the Layout by Commodity for a list of vendors that exhibited. Thanks to everyone who attended and made it a great event! We hope the connections made will strengthen JMU’s supplier diversity efforts and SWAM certified businesses across the Commonwealth.
