Vallejo to Make "Buy Local" the Law PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 06 November 2008

Vallejo, California is a giving local businesses a leg-up. The Vallejo Chamber of Commerce has decided that when the city needs vendors, they're going to try to do business with local firms first. This just isn't a decision they're trying to pursue. Vallejo is looking to make it an ordinance.

This move will help to put millions of dollars back into the local economy, as the City spends millions in contracting out work every year.

Vallejo won't be the first to make this move, as other cities across the country have done so as well.
