About
Us
The
Greater Millville Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to the proposition
that the business interests of the area have much in common,
and that cooperative efforts can lead to lasting improvements
in the regional business environment, as well as in the community
at large.
The Chamber
places emphasis on gathering and providing timely information
on issues that may affect business and the regional economy.
This web site, for example, enables the Chamber to post late-breaking
news on business, governmental and legislative issues that may
warrant attention and action by the membership. The Chamber's
newsletter is published and distributed periodically, and contains
useful information on business matters and community events.
The Chamber
believes that mutual support and involvement are key to success,
and has worked to create opportunities throughout the year for
members to get together. Monthly luncheons afford members the
opportunity to gather, confer on recent happenings and be exposed
to a variety of interesting speakers and business development
topics. In addition, the Chamber hosts 'Business After Business'
events during the year, to provide added opportunities for members
to meet in different regional settings, and "appreciate each
other's company".
The Chamber
is also active in sponsoring several key events to celebrate
and promote businesses in the community. These events include
the annual Collector's Car Show and Craft Show, and the kickoff
of the Holiday Season with the Christmas Parade on Thanksgiving
Weekend.
