The HBA is an all volunteer, not-for-profit organization comprised of local businesspersons whose primary purpose is to stimulate trade and improve business conditions in Downtown Hillsdale and the surrounding trade area through partnership and networking between our Members and other community organizations. In addition, the HBA also organizes and sponsors many special event activities that occur in Downtown Hillsdale throughout the year.

Membership in the HBA is open to any business located within Hillsdale County.  All types of businesses (retail, service, restaurant, lending, commercial) are encouraged to join and home based business owners are welcome, too.  Monthly membership meetings are held the 1st Wednesday of each month at 7:45 am at the Hillsdale Community Library, 11 E.

In the 2009 Downtown Hillsdale Blueprint Plan the need for an organization that could serve as the marketing voice of Downtown Hillsdale was listed as a priority on the 1st Year Implementation List. Based upon this recommendation and the already ongoing efforts of a small group of Downtown Hillsdale business owners working to improve the overall business climate, the Hillsdale Business Association (HBA) was formed.
