PGA of America VendorMatch Opens for 2026 Major Championships 


Registration open until June 3 for local suppliers

The PGA of America has opened PGA VendorMatch registration for the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship to be held at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska in 2026.

Local businesses are invited to explore sourcing opportunities for products and services in support of the major event.

Local companies can register here through June 3, 2025, to potentially meet with the PGA of America and/or its larger suppliers for procurement opportunities leading up to and during the 2026 championship. A variety of Tier II goods and services are needed, including food and beverage, florals, transportation, staffing and more.

Visit the PGA VendorMatch website for the full list of product and service categories. PGA VendorMatch advances the inclusion of local, small and diverse-owned businesses in procurement opportunities, including businesses owned by women, minorities, LGBTQ+ individuals, people with disabilities, veterans and service-disabled veterans.

“We continue to foster development of a game, golf industry workforce and supply chain that reflect the demographics of America,” said PGA of America Chief People Officer Sandy Cross. “By including local, small and diverse-owned suppliers in our championships’ supply chain, we not only empower their growth but also boost the economic strength of our championship host communities. We are thrilled to invite these businesses to register for PGA VendorMatch, providing them with an opportunity to potentially showcase their products and services on a global stage.”

The golf industry, valued at $102 billion, generates an estimated $31 billion in travel-related economic impact. Major championships play a significant role in boosting tourism and leisure spend in their respective regions. Through PGA VendorMatch, the PGA of America reinforces its commitment to enhance the economic prosperity of cities and regions that host its championships.
