Minority Business Office

The City of Hampton is committed to helping your business succeed by providing the most comprehensive network of resources. The Minority Business Program Office is within the Economic Development Department and along with the Purchasing and Procurement Oversight Committee (PPOC) and City leaders, are working together to increase opportunities for minority and woman-owned businesses in City procurement activities.

The City of Hampton is the first within the Hampton Roads region to have conducted a Disparity Study which revealed that minority and woman-owned businesses were not getting a fair share of the procurement dollars. Consequently, the City has implemented a comprehensive plan to remedy this situation.
