Franklinton Board of Trade

Trent E Smith

The Franklinton Board of Trade has been around for over 100 years. They welcome new residents and enterprises while honoring the legacy of the first settlement in Columbus

As a group of business owners, residents and guests, they are dedicated to the “individual and collective renewal and growth of the people who live and work in Franklinton ”

FBOT was established in 1904 as a chamber of commerce for the Franklinton community

Their first project was to elevate the railroad tracks at the old Toledo-Ohio rail station on W Broad St. to better connect business to Downtown

Today, 118 years later, their mission remains unchanged: Advocate, Beautify, Connect, to serve the Franklinton community!
