About the LDBA

The Leesburg Downtown Business Association was formed in May of 2003 by a group of retail and professional business leaders. The goal of the association is to provide a unified movement for the overall betterment of our business community. As the association grows we strive to aid businesses in attracting a target audience to the historic shopping district of Leesburg. We also strive to raise public awareness of the strong business community that is growing here in downtown Leesburg.
