County Targets Minority, Women, Or Disability Owned Businesses for Contracting Opportunities

The Minority, Female, and Disabled-Owned Businesses (MFD) Program aims to provide thousands of local businesses with county contracting opportunities.

“These are the types of local small businesses that are the backbone of our economy and who have suffered from lack of contracting diversity in the past,” said County Council President Tom Hucker during his virtual media briefing on Wednesday.

Montgomery County spends more than $1 billion in procurement projects each year, and local leaders want to ensure it’s done in an “equitable” manner. Hucker explains what major step the County Council is taking this week to protect the MFD Program’s growth.
