More than 70 businesses from across the city are looking forward to showcasing themselves to tens of thousands of DNC visitors.
CHICAGO -- The Democratic National Convention is doing something it's never done before. Tens of thousands of visitors to Chicago will be the first to witness a vendor expo dubbed 'All Things Chicago ,' sponsored by the DNC Host committee. West Side businessman Thad Smith has been making and selling honey products for nearly 10 years, and will be taking a few cases of them to the vendor fair.
The Republican National Convention had a similar event in Milwaukee, where local businesses were exposed to the thousands who attended the RNC. That's what the business owners joining 'All Things Chicago' are looking forward to. 'It's putting us on a bigger stage, and it's so much negativity that's been talked about, and tried to be shown about Chicago. To be a part of the good that's actually happening, I think it's phenomenal.
