About Us

WHO WE ARE?

    MSBA is an alliance of local businesses from the Main South commercial corridor that works to promote further economic development within the Main South community. Together we seek to build strong relationships among businesses, community members, and organizations to enhance the quality of life for the neighborhood. We provide guidance, resources, and networking opportunities to help our business thrive. We strive to make our community a walkable, engaging, and vibrant neighborhood for those who live in, work in, and patronize the area. 

Making Main South a Destination

Main South is more that just an area within the beautiful city of Worcester, Massachusetts. Together, we are being intentional to make it a destination where our community members choose to build, grow, reside and do business in.

Connecting Our Community

We take tremendous pride in the events we coordinate and participate in throughout the year. These events give our members the opportunity to connect with the residents in Main South area and build everlasting bonds.

Our Mission

The mission of the Main South Business Association is to promote, advocate and foster a thriving business community in Worcester's Main South District. We enhance the economic vitality of the neighborhood by building strong relationships among business owners, community members, and organizations around shared issues and values.

Where we began...

In November 2018, several Main South commercial district members began to discuss the need to stay connected to address common issues that were influencing the businesses, residents, and visitors. 


With the support of MassDevelopment Transformative Development Initiative Main South Fellow, several community leaders, and stakeholders from the Main South Business Association launched its first Board of Directors in 2019. The first board of directors took the challenge of running an active association, including events, to ensure that all business resources were available to the area when needed. 


The Board of Directors for the term of 2019-2021 were: Laura Perez-Garcia, President, Franklin Lopez, Vice-President, Ramia Hernandez, Secretary, Nidia Perez, Treasurer, Robert Monegro, Orlando Perez, Lizardo Lopez, Katia Norford and Jessica Velez.
