About PMVA

A stronger future for mobile vendors.

The Philadelphia Mobile Vendor Association brings mobile businesses together through advocacy, practical resources, and a clear path toward PMVA verification.

A collective voice

PMVA represents the needs of lawful mobile businesses in conversations with City Health, L&I, City Council, and other departments.

Practical business support

Members use the portal to organize business information, prepare documents, track membership and compliance progress, and access business resources.

A path to verification

Businesses can begin onboarding before full compliance. PMVA reviews assigned requirements and supporting documents before granting verified standing under its compliance requirements and code of conduct. Membership approval and public profile approval are separate steps.

Clear responsibilities

PMVA is not a government agency. Its verification is not a government license or certification. PMVA does not coordinate or organize events; any opportunities identify the actual organizing organization.
