Midwest Business Exchange

MBE Barter - How It Works!A network of local businesses and organizations, Midwest Business Exchange (MBE) allows members to barter their goods and services among themselves. The team at MBE helps to facilitate trades between members, eliminating the drawbacks of one-on-one trading by creating a functioning barter economy that allows businesses to trade with one another. As a result, a business can engage in trade even if they do not have goods or services that their trading partner wants.

Since 1980, MBE has worked with countless businesses, nonprofits, and organizations to support the local economy by encouraging mutually beneficial exchanges. More importantly, we’ve helped our members market and advertise their businesses in ways that their budget may not have otherwise allowed.

I have been a member of MBE for over 20 years. I use MBE for everything from going on vacations , flooring and chimney work. It’s also a great way to advertise too. When I need something  I’ll call my broker they get right on it.

I have been a member of MBE for three years and I wish I would have joined ten years ago. Not only has my trade business been rewarding, but I have gotten cash referrals from trade jobs. One member in Vicksburg referred me to three of his neighbors for power washing and they in turn referred me to others for painting and glass bead blasting. I can’t say enough for the guys who work there, and when I call you can tell they are genuinely interested in helping me promote my business.
