We would like to welcome you to the new site of the Virginia Pawnbrokers Association.
VPA started quite a few years ago with the Tidewater Association and has served Pawnbrokers in Virginia who
have pulled together to represent and defend their industry and create value through the power of combining the strength of
multiple businesses.
More than 75 million people do not have a bank account or credit cards. In today's diverse society,
many people depend on pawnshops to help them meet their daily financial needs not met by other financial institutions. Our
customers represent the working families of Virginia who have an unexpected need for a short term loan. Pawn loans keep the
electricity on, rents paid and cars working.
Being a member of the Virginia Pawnbroker Association affords you the opportunity to build your business,
protect the longevity of your business by adding your voice to the chorus of others. If you own a Pawn shop in Virginia what
is keeping you from joining?
Please get in touch to offer comments and join our mailing list.
