Serbian Americans in business

About 176,000 Americans report Serbian ancestry in recent Census estimates. Community organizations put the number much higher, since many families once reported "Yugoslav".

Chicago is often called the Serbian capital of the US and has the largest Serbian population of any American city, followed by New York and Phoenix. Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Indianapolis and Columbus are long-standing centres, and Pittsburgh is home to the American Srbobran, published since 1906.

Serbian Americans have deep roots in trucking, construction, engineering, real estate, hospitality and the professions, plus a long tradition of parish-based community life.

Community life centres on Serbian Orthodox parishes, Kolo Sestara circles, folklore ensembles and sports clubs. BABO doesn't replace any of it. It gives the business owners in those communities one place to find each other, trade referrals and meet.
