A brief description of the program:
Loyola Marymount University does give preference to local products and businesses in its purchasing decisions. LMU has over 60 off-campus, local vendors that use “Flexi,” money that can be put on Student’s ID cards. These local vendors range from Bristol Farms, Good Pizza, Uncle Aaron’s hair salon, and Westchester Auto and Detailing Carwash. Also, twice a month LMU hosts a Farmer’s Market which provides students with fresh food that is locally grown.
