We're still buzzing. The 2026 AABOA Business Trade Expo is a wrap and what a day it was.

To every attendee, exhibitor, sponsor, volunteer, and speaker who showed up and gave it their all — thank you. This is what AABOA is all about.

The energy doesn't stop here. Join us next month for the Pinkesh Memorial Golf Tournament — another chance to connect, compete, and keep building together. 🔗 aaboa.net/golf-tournament/

On this Memorial Day, we pause to honor the men and women who gave everything in service to this country.

Many of our AABOA members, their families, and their communities carry this legacy — of sacrifice, of service, of building something that lasts.

Today, we are grateful. We remember. We honor.

From all of us at AABOA — thank you to every service member and every family who has carried this weight.

Nearly 20 years ago, a group of Asian American small business owners decided that going it alone wasn't the only option.

They built AABOA — a platform for advocacy, collective bargaining, education, and the kind of peer network that actually moves the needle for independent business owners.

This May, during AAPI Heritage Month, that community comes together for its largest event yet.

The 2026 AABOA Business Trade Expo:
📅 May 13, 2026
📍 Berglund Special Events Center, Roanoke, VA
👥 1,000+ business leaders
🏢 120+ exhibitors
🎟 Free to attend

Panels, connections, and real conversations between people who understand the unique challenges — and extraordinary resilience — of running a small business in America.

If you believe in the power of community-driven commerce, we'd love to have you in the room.

The furniture in your hotel tells guests everything about your standards before they say a word.

Mod Hospitality is a U.S.-based manufacturer and supplier of custom millwork, casegoods, and seating solutions built exclusively for the hospitality industry. Headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia and founded in 2021, they work directly with hotel owners, developers, and FF&E procurement teams to deliver precision-crafted pieces that meet the standards the major brands demand.

No generic catalog pulls. No compromising on spec. Just furniture built to fit your property and hold up to the wear of daily hotel use.

At AABOA Expo 2026, connect with a manufacturer that takes the details as seriously as you do.

The hotel operators who understand that the room experience starts with the furniture are already paying attention. Make sure you're one of them.

This week, we celebrate National Travel & Tourism Week and the AABOA members at the heart of it.

Our hotel, hospitality, and fuel industry members keep America moving. From the rooms travelers rest in, to the stops they make along the way, AABOA members are the backbone of the travel experience.

As industry conditions continue to shift, collective advocacy matters more than ever. That's why we're building community and bringing it all together May 13 in Roanoke, VA.
