"The purpose of the Inlet Area Business Association (IABA) is to help improve the business economy in the Town of Inlet and the surrounding area, to act as publicity bureau for the same, and to advance the business interests of said area... Businesses, professionals and friends of the Inlet area business community are welcome."
Together, as the IABA, we will:
- Collaborate on issues and ideas that will help our individual businesses grow and the Town of Inlet flourish.
- Take advantage of a support network of businesses that share common goals.
- Pool our resources to effectively bring visitors into our businesses for services, dining, leisure and shopping.
Working together helps the community work more efficiently!
