Local Business Registry

Sign that says support local business

What is a local business registry vendor?

A local business with a City of Gainesville tax receipt interested in doing business with our organization may sign up to receive instant bid notifications through our local vendor directory.

The directory contains listings of local vendors for dozens of services ranging from building to road construction, electrical repairs, plumbing, tree trimming, office machine repairs, internet and printing services. 

Benefits of being on the directory

Local vendors get more opportunities. All city departments and offices are required to use this directory when soliciting quotes.

Local vendor requirements

A local vendor is defined as a City of Gainesville business enterprise, firm or corporation which has headquarters, manufacturing facilities or a locally owned franchise located in, or having a street address within, the legal boundaries of City of Gainesville for at least a year immediately prior to the issuance of the request for quotation or formal bid solicitation (note, post office boxes do not qualify as a business address).
