About [Edit]
The Sustainable Business Network of Portland (SBNP) is a non-profit business alliance of locally owned independent businesses, service providers, community organizations and individuals committed to building a more socially,environmentally and financially sustainable local economy. We believe that local businesses play a key role in shaping our community and making it a good place to live and work.
The Sustainable Business Network of Portland's primary goal is to build a strong local network of community-based businesses, non-profit organizations and supportive individuals, which can provide a basis for fostering a truly sustainable local economy in the Portland metropolitan area.
We are a member of the Business Alliance for Local Living Economics BALLE , an alliance of local business networks working together to strengthen local economies and improve life in their communities in the U.S. and Canada.
The Sustainable Business Network of Portland is also working to coordinate efforts with the wide range of other non-profit organizations and government agencies that are promoting sustainability in Oregon.
Our major economic initiative is the Local First: Choose Locally Owned Businesses campaign whose goals are to:
* Re-circulate more dollars in our community
* Support and strengthen locally owned, independent businesses and maintain jobs
* Preserve and enhance our unique neighborhoods
* Get consumers to commit to spending more dollars with our participating locally owned businesses
Board Members include:
