Does the institution seek to support historically underutilized businesses, minority-owned businesses, and women owned-businesses?:
A brief description of how the institution meets the criteria:
Loyola Marymount University supports many different historically underutilized businesses on campus. One such business is the “Lion Café Cart” which is managed by Sung Park and Jimmy Yu, who are subcontracted as principle owners for coffee cart. The coffee cart was started as a part of the Student Government’s Sustainability Program in 1998. Also, bread products in the Roski Dining Hall, Crimson Lion Restaurant, and Lion’s Corner Café are all purchased from Homeboy Industries. This company assists at-risk, recently released, and former gang-involved youth to become contributing members of their communities through a variety of services in response to their multiple needs. In partnership with Sodexo food services, LMU is part of “SodexoMAGIC” which effectively provides flexible, innovative and comprehensive service solutions that have unrivaled broad consumer appeal to the marketplace.
