Newmarket Business Association

The Newmarket Business Association supports businesses and residents in Boston’s Newmarket industrial and commercial district, which overlaps Dorchester, Roxbury, South Boston and the South End. It works to inspire business growth, influence government decisions that affect the area, encourage business-to-business connections and advocate for the district’s companies. The association describes its goal as building a working model for tomorrow’s business community in one of the city’s key industrial zones.

The association points members to the Newmarket Business Improvement District, which worked with the Boston Planning and Development Agency for more than five years to produce PLAN: Newmarket. Approved by the BPDA at a January meeting, the plan aims to create a 21st Century Industrial District that preserves the area’s legacy of industrial innovation while promoting emerging creative industries and unique cultural experiences.
