Diversity & Inclusion

Minority vendor outreach is an ongoing component of our diversity efforts. We work with a variety of local non-profit and civic agencies in the markets we operate to help implement inclusive vendor outreach. In our casino developments, such as Maryland Live!, we form task forces specifically to focus on increasing Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) participation in vending.

Utilizing local, minority and women-owned businesses during the construction of our developments is part of our corporate culture. We have an award-winning track record in defining innovative initiatives to remove barriers and build capacity for diverse companies. We embrace aggressive MBE/WBE participation goals in the construction of our projects, and have consistently met or exceeded such MBE/WBE thresholds across our developments.

We routinely implement recruitment and training programs for locals, to ensure that the new jobs and economic opportunities we create flow to residents. We also work with local non-profit agencies to help implement these policies. It’s not just the right thing to do—it’s good business, helping us attract some of the best and most committed employees in the country.
