We hope to acquaint you with the many selling opportunities that exist within Hernando County; promote good vendor-purchasing relationships; and make more efficient use of both the vendors' and purchasing staff's time.
Vendors are constantly looking for new markets for increased sales and a reasonable profit. Hernando County is constantly looking for innovative, reliable, and competitive vendors who can satisfy the purchasing needs of Hernando County. Together, the vendor and Hernando County can achieve a mutually satisfactory vendor-purchasing relationship between seller and buyer.

This includes all aspects of the purchase from the receipt of the department's requisition to issuance of a purchase order or contract.
