Welcome to The Laurel Board of Trade
Bringing Laurel Businesses Together
The Laurel Board of Trade, Inc. is a local non-profit membership organization that has been bringing together Laurel merchants since the early 1960s.
The Laurel Board of Trade today includes over 100 small business members including retail merchants, restaurant owners and professional and B2B service providers. We work in direct partnership with the City of Laurel, Prince George’s County and the State of Maryland to help our local merchants work towards the common goal of keeping Laurel a hub of commerce.

Get Involved
Over the years, our basic mission has not changed; to help members be their best through connections to knowledge, ideas, relationships with other small businesses in the area and educating the community on the importance of buying local and supporting your local small businesses.

ARAMIDE INC
ARAMIDE first opened its doors in Laurel on December 2019. The store recently moved to a new location in Laurel, 13499 Baltimore Avenue. ARAMIDE is a minority black-owned business dedicated to providing exceptional services to Clients with a trendy and unique collection of Men and Women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories in regular and extended sizes. The organization also offers mentoring, styling, and makeover services.
Aramide Adeyemi is the founder of ARAMIDE INC, and she has a long affiliation with Laurel. Aramide lived in Laurel for many years before getting married and remains affiliated with Laurel via business and personal. The family-oriented community of the City of Laurel played a significant role in the decision to establish the store in Laurel and the opportunity to give back to the community, specifically the youths. Organizations like the Laurel Board of Trade are a great link that helps bring everyone together and build lasting relationships, and ARAMIDE is proudly a member of the LBOT.
At ARAMIDE INC, we provide a personalized and memorable experience to all Clients with our dedicated staff. Aramide believes if someone feels good about how they feel and look, it positively changes their perspective of themselves. The makeover and styling services are available for individuals or groups who want a fresh start or need help with styling for a special event. Aramide has been a mentor for over 15 years and has worked with several non-profit organizations to influence a mentee’s personal and professional life, predominantly youths and adults working on a fresh start.
We look forward to seeing you at the new location at 13499 Baltimore avenue, on the 2nd floor, in the same building as Shakura. You can contact us if you have any questions or need to schedule an appointment
