Thousands of people will descend on Philadelphia next month for the Democratic National Convention.
Local businesses are expected to benefit from that foot traffic and the convention's estimated $300 million economic impact, as Hillary Clinton is crowned the party's presidential nominee.
The Democratic National Committee has already awarded contracts for merchandising, construction, transportation and event production for the four-day event on July 25-28.
Of the $150 million already spent by the committee, most of the money has gone to local businesses owned by women and minorities.

Another African-American-owned business was hired to print business cards for the event, the magazine reported.
Leap Starr, owned by Liz Jenkins Santana, won the contract to plan PoliticalFest.
