PEOPLE WHO MEAN BUSINESS
Celebrating the first decade

One of the biggest landlords in Spitalfields is neither a profit making business nor a charity. It is a community business which works to benefit the local area and help provide jobs.

This is Spitalfields Small Business Association (SsBA) which has tenants and properties in Brick Lane, Spelman Street, Deal Street, Princelet Street, and Hanbury Street.

But SsBA is quite unlike any ordinary landlord. It's tenants actually help to control the business. SsBA also provide free business advice and involes itself in training and numerous activities that improve and strengthen the local economy.

This publication celebrates SsBA's first ten years from the begining in 1980 to 1990.
