The foundation of the Thurston County economy is the government infrastructure for the state of Washington and the non profit organizations and pseudo governmental entities with offices in the capital city. Supplementing this stable economic force ensuring a robust ecosystem to support retailers and service providers are the healthcare industry, transportation & logistics companies, tribal business base, and emerging industries like cannabis. IBA past representation projects in Thurston County have included businesses in Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, Rochester, Tenino, and Rainer.

Formerly a sleepy Washington county best known by state residents for its outlet mall, Lewis County is emerging as a trucking & warehousing hub for the I-5 corridor of the Pacific Northwest due to its ability to deliver products to both the Seattle & Portland metropolitan areas efficiently. The area is also known for its manufacturing base where diverse products from paper to cream cheese and bowling pins to snowplows are fabricated. IBA welcomes the opportunity to represent Lewis County entrepreneurs from Centralia & Chehalis in the north to Toledo in the south to Morton & Packwood in the east.
