JBG Purchasing Group recognizes that state and local governments have a duty to serve the public while at the same time purchasing the items necessary to make government work. JBG also recognizes the need for state and local governments to do this under sever budgetary restrictions. As a result, state and local governments need high quality products at the best price imaginable, and to be able to work with a vendor they can trust and count on.
That is the background from which JBG was born in 2016, to provide high quality goods to state and local governments at the best price imaginable and to do so in a reliable and straightforward manner. Our goal is to let our buying power and economies of scale help save taxpayer dollars and provide you with the reliability you need and deserve.
JBG Purchasing is a proudly female-owned business.
