Progress Investment Associates is a commercial economic development enterprise based in Philadelphia, PA, dedicated to sustainable community economic development and job opportunities. Founded in 1962 by the late Rev. Dr. Leon H. Sullivan, the organization focuses on encouraging the development of black-owned businesses and black self-empowerment, with a primary goal of advancing opportunities for African Americans.

Sullivan Progress Plaza, the first African American owned shopping center in the United States, is a testament to the vision and impact of Rev. Leon H. Sullivan. Established in 1968 and continuously owned and managed by African Americans, the 95,000 square foot commercial property underwent a $22 million dollar renovation in 2009. Celebrating its 50-year milestone in 2018, Sullivan Progress Plaza remains a beacon of pride in the North Philadelphia community.
