In the heart of our vibrant town, the Casselton Business Association (CBA) is one of many threads that weave local businesses into the fabric of our community. With nearly 100 members strong, we're the go-to network for businesses to amplify their presence, unite with peers, and foster community growth. Let's explore what it means to be part of the CBA.
Why Every Casselton Business Needs the CBA
Our meetings are not just about boring agendas; they’re where ideas come alive, and business gets done. Join us for tours to learn about local businesses, "off the clock" sessions for making connections and ongoing access to opportunities to put our business name in front of local Casselton area residents.
Here's a picture from our CBA member tour of Abbiamo Pasta Company.

Think of the CBA as your business's personal cheerleader. We put you in the Casselton Business Directory, spotlight your stories on our website, and give you all the social media love.
And because we're all about sharing the love, we’ve got this sweet deal where we chip in for your advertising when you team up with fellow members. It's all the perks of a big ad campaign without the price tag that makes you wince.
