The Arkansas Trade Association (ATA) is a proud member of the National Alliance of Trade Associations (NATA). As a non-profit organization, ATA is committed to advancing the interests of businesses across Arkansas, Louisiana, and southern Missouri, while fostering sustainable economic growth throughout the region.
Founded by a network of like-minded business owners and operators, ATA brings together a focused yet diverse membership united by shared values: operational excellence, ethical leadership, and community impact. While our membership is smaller in scale, our mission aligns closely with larger associations—advocating for our members, strengthening local enterprise, and promoting responsible business practices.
ATA is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, elected for their expertise, integrity, and dedication to the long-term success of our organization. We also take pride in the charitable spirit of our members, whose ongoing contributions reflect our commitment to service, accountability, and regional empowerment.
Together, we are building a resilient, values-driven business network—rooted in Arkansas, connected across state lines, and committed to lasting impact.
