Mission Statement
The Montavilla East Tabor Business Association (METBA) seeks to unite area businesses to create a safe neighborhood and enhance the economic viability of our community. We provide networking opportunities for local business people and work together to improve our business district by promoting our area, championing our local businesses, recruiting new businesses and encouraging area residents to shop locally. We also work with the city on transportation, pedestrian, traffic and crime issues.
Montavilla and East Tabor are lively historic districts with tremendous growth potential, and we believe we can continue to guide its development as one of Portland's premier business communities.
