About Us

Pomeroy is a historic river town shaped by industry, resilience, creativity, and care. Like many Appalachian communities, it has experienced change, loss, and renewal—and today, it is being reimagined by the people who live and work here.

The Pomeroy Merchants Association (PMA) exists to support local businesses while strengthening the cultural and economic fabric of our town. As a nonprofit organization, we bring merchants, artists, and community members together to collaborate rather than compete.

Through seasonal events, shared marketing, public art, and community-centered programming, PMA helps create opportunities for businesses to thrive and for residents and visitors to experience the unique spirit of Pomeroy.

We believe the future of this town is built together—by those who stayed, those who returned, and those who believe in what Pomeroy can become.
