Mission Statement
Mission Statement

To exchange and promote business with members and support member businesses through information sharing. To support secondary business education in Ashtabula County encouraging and sustaining entrepreneurship.

​

The purposes of the Ashtabula County Business Exchange (known as AcBE) are:

​

  1. To establish relationships with other business people who become members of the Organization by educating them about the product, service or profession each of us exclusively represents. Relationships generate word-of-mouth advertising and exchanges which offer the opportunity to do business with others who are in the market for our product or service.

  2. Promote secondary business education in the county through scholarships, mentorship programs, and information sharing.

Contact Us

Whether you're interested in joining AcBE or just have a question please contact us by email or get in touch with the AcBE leadership committee.

About Us

We are an organization of local business owners who network together to promote business and exchange client contacts and member services. If a need arises for services that our members can provide, we hope you will consider conducting business with the "member" professionals listed.

Only one business is represented per business category. It is this exclusivity that provides the foundation of the group and the business leads generated by our members that give our organization its strength. If you are interested in joining this outstanding business organization and filling an open category that is not currently represented, contact any member listed to see if you qualify.

Who says networking meetings at a funeral home aren't fun? Look at all these smiling faces!
