Abstract:
The first Greenville Business Association was organized in 1889. A Retail Merchants Association was realized in 1903, followed by the Pitt County Merchants Association. An additional Greenville Merchants’ Association was organized in 1918, but fell apart due to the economic pressures of World War I. It was reorganized in 1925 and 1937, and by 1955 had 233 members in Greenville and 25 members in nearby towns. This organization did much for Greenville businesses.
