A unique blend of historic and contemporary, Little Portugal Toronto BIA is a small independent business collective situated on Dundas Street West, just west of Lansdowne Avenue to Shaw Street. The combination of public murals, boutique stores, bars, restaurants, music venues, professional services, galleries and convenience stores make for a quirky and culturally distinct community spirit. Swing by and experience a sense of belonging, in the heart of Little Portugal.
Building on previous projects that have successfully supported area beautification, safety and economic development, Dundas West and Little Portugal BIAs have joined to create one larger Business Improvement Area that spans from Shaw Street to the CN tracks just west of Lansdowne Avenue.

Board of Directors
The board of directors of the Little Portugal Toronto Business Improvement Area is made up of unpaid volunteers who were elected by the community at the Annual General Meeting on April 1. The board meets monthly with representatives from the City of Toronto to discuss issues affecting our neighbourhood, and to vote on all decisions and actions undertaken by the BIA.
