About the Neighborhood Business Alliance

The Neighborhood Business Alliance (NBA) is made up of representatives from all 20 neighborhood associations, who meet together monthly to coordinate city-wide services, share best practices, and advocate on issues effecting neighborhood businesses and districts. The NBA and Neighborhood Ventures partner to serve and advocate for neighborhood business districts and the neighborhood businesses located within them. Contact Neighborhood Ventures if you would like help with your neighborhood business district.

Shop Outside the Box

When you shop outside the box and support neighborhood businesses, you support local merchants who care about their community. Neighborhood business owners invest in their neighborhoods every day by providing goods and service to their surrounding communities. Many are actively working together to make their neighborhood business districts and all 20 neighborhood business districts in the urban core of the city of Grand Rapids better places. Support neighborhood businesses – Shop Outside the Box!
