With the Olympics now just under 600 days away businesses all over Surrey are cashing in.
164 contracts for the Olymic and Paralympic Games have been won by Surrey firms, worth £740 million.
These include security and construction firms, management consultants and caterers working on the Olympic Stadium, Aquatics Centre and Velodrome.
Surrey County Councilor Denise Saliagopoulos has urged more local businesses to involve themselves.
She said: There are still hundreds of millions of pounds worth of deals to be done and I would urge Surrey companies who arent yet involved to find out how they can benefit.
In the coming months there will be a demand for businesses to provide an assortment of goods and services from flowers to catering equipment, curtains and even dental equipment.
There is an estimated £1 billion to be generated by the games for the South East economy.
