Looking for a local Baltimore City vendor for your catering needs? Whether you are planning an event, or looking to purchase lunch for your team, you can use this guide to find some amazing local vendors! These vendors all participated in one or both of our HopkinsLocal Catering and Food Vendor Fair on 3/26 and 4/2.

Leaders from Johns Hopkins, state and city government, and the local business community gathered on JHU’s Homewood campus to celebrate the success of the HopkinsLocal initiative to expand the economic impact that the university and health system has across Baltimore.

Joseph Starchia, MSHRD, CDP, senior economic inclusion program manager for Johns Hopkins University joins Marc on Fox45 to share how the HopkinsLocal program has been connecting to the Baltimore community by empowering disadvantaged businesspeople.

Over three years the program led to the hiring of more than 1,000 city residents and a $54 million increase in spending with local vendors.
