Inlet Area Business Association

"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."

Join today! Annual dues are only $50.

You do not need to own a business in the Town of Inlet to be a member, in fact, you do not need to own a business at all to be a member. And you do not need to be a paid member to attend meetings. We welcome all who are interested in anything in and around Inlet to join us! The board meets monthly at 6:30 p.m. at area businesses.

Print out an application here. Or pay online here. Paid Members - 3/13/26

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!
