Lisa Rogalski, purchasing manager, will be discussing how local vendors and suppliers can get in the door and do business with Genesis Health System.

Some supplies and services Genesis is seeking include, but are not limited to: office supplies; maintenance supplies and services; linens; construction materials, including electrical, mechanical and flooring; furniture; vehicles; cell phones; and grocery and floral.

Registration begins at 7:45 a.m. and the program is from 8:00 a.m.-9:00 a.m. The cost for the program is $10 paid in advance or $15 at the door for chamber members and $20 for non-members. For advance registration, call the reservation hotline at (563) 823-3693 or visit the Calendar of Events page at www.DavenportOne.com.

“A Chance to Meet…” is designed to give smaller business vendors and suppliers the opportunity to meet the purchasing decision-makers from larger corporations and government entities. A different company or entity will be highlighted each month, September though July. The programs are usually held the third Tuesday of each month.

The spring series sponsor for the “A Chance to Meet…” program is DHCU Community Credit Union and the May sponsor is Quad Cities Business Systems, Inc.
