Why Not Join?
The Southern Chester County Chamber of Commerce (SCCCC) is the region's leading non-profit membership based organization focused on promoting trade, commerce, industry and sustainable economic development. We support a diverse and growing business segment including a wide variety of entrepreneurs, small and mid-size private employers, non-profit organizations, corporate leaders, institutions, health care services, and more.
Belonging to the Southern Chester County Chamber of Commerce is great for your business. Here are just a few of the benefits of belonging:
Face-to-face interaction is the best way to meet people.
E-mail and social media can be time efficient, but there is no substitute for a good old-fashioned handshake and the exchange of conversation. You are able to see a person's body language which can tell you a lot about whether the person is interested in what you have to say or not. Meet new people at SCCCC's programs and events. Visit the CHAMBER EVENT CALENDAR to view what's coming up. Call us to learn about event and program sponsorship opportunities 610-444-0774.
