HISTORY...



Fifteen years strong, the Greater Los Angeles Vendor Fair (GLAVF) has earned its reputation by creating the ideal opportunity for contracting officers and businesses to meet face-to-face in one location. With its success solely predicated on the value of its information to its participants, the GLAVF has become the largest local agency business opportunity outreach event in the California. The event attracts an average of 2,000 attendees each year.

The fair started as a networking luncheon hosted by Los Angeles Metro, then Metropolitan Transit Authority. The overwhelming success of the luncheon led to Los Angeles Metro’s collaboration with the City of Los Angeles, the County of Los Angeles, and the Metropolitan Water District. The agencies that collectively bring billion-dollar contracting and procurement opportunities have become the GLAVF’s host agencies.
