The Stewart County Chamber of Commerce seeks to assist our local businesses by encouraging economic growth and increasing tourism through the promotion of local assets. 

WHAT IS A CHAMBER OF COMMERCE?
·       A Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary membership-driven organization. It unites business, government, and services, creating a central agency which lends itself to improving business and building a better community.
·       A Chamber of Commerce is people. The Chamber offers a place for all who share in the desire to improve the community and the conditions under which business is conducted. It directs the energies of those who believe that a community worth living in is a community worth improving.
·       A Chamber of commerce strength lies in attracting the greatest number of individuals and firms into membership, thereby creating a pool of resources from which can be drawn energy, ideas and funding.
·       A Chamber of Commerce gives direction to the business person’s instinct to improve the market and their community. The successful Chamber is one that recognizes all the factors affecting the community and creates or adjusts its programs according.
·       A Chamber of Commerce is NOT a department of state government, a political body, a civic club or professional society, a social service, welfare or charitable institution, a private advertising, publicity, or public relations agency.
