Message from the Chairman

On behalf of the Rome Area Chamber of Commerce, thank you for visiting the Rome Area Chamber of Commerce website.

The website is designed to promote our member businesses and organizations, showcase chamber and community events, facilitate networking opportunities, and highlight all the benefits the chamber offers.

Rome is clearly continuing its path of sustained success and growth. Signs of consistent development, growth of existing businesses and an influx of new businesses are everywhere. I’m proud to be a part of the Rome Chamber of Commerce, and the key role the organization has played in our community’s economic journey, bringing businesses together and fostering a thriving environment.

As our city and business communities continue to evolve, it’s crucial that our organization evolves with them. As the Rome Chamber has done since its inception, we will continue to offer vital support to our members through networking opportunities, advocacy efforts, educational resources, and promotional initiatives. In addition, we are continuing to find new innovative and impactful ways to support our members, and foster business growth in Rome.
I encourage you to reach out to us for assistance, explore the services we provide, and take advantage of the many benefits of Chamber membership. We're here to assist businesses in any way that we can.
Thank you again for taking the time to explore our website.

From the Rome Chamber of Commerce Certificate of Incorporation, February 12, 1912

“The particular purposes for which the corporation is to be formed are: To foster trade and commerce, or the interests of those having a common trade, business, financial or professional interest, to reform abuses relative thereto, to secure freedom from unjust or unlawful exactions, to diffuse accurate and reliable information as to the standing of merchants and other matters, to procure uniformity and certainty in the customs and usages of trade and commerce, and of those having a common trade, business, financial or professional interest; to settle differences between its members, and to promote a more enlarged and friendly association between business men.”

To this day, the Rome Area Chamber of Commerce is funded by businesses, professional firms, organizations, and individuals who recognize the importance of having a business advocacy and community promotion group in place to encourage economic growth in Rome.  The Chamber is not a part of government.  Its board of directors, committees, and many members volunteer their time, talent, and resources for the betterment of our community.
