The Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce was established in 1982 and has provided the community with outstanding service for over 40 years.  The Chamber’s mission is to “Provide extraordinary leadership as an Advocate for business, Information Source for the community and a Conduit for building destination awareness and responsible growth.”

As part of the Chamber’s community role, we offer membership opportunities for three important sectors of the Cashiers area: General Business Membership, Non-Profit Membership and individuals or Associate Membership.  These categories offer many benefits to the participants along with providing support to the Chamber to continue working on the community’s behalf.  

Chamber General Business Membership (Annual Investment $220) and Non-Profit Membership (Annual Investment $75):   Listing in the Cashiers Area Visitor Guide and Membership Directory (25,000 copies annually) and other print publications plus numerous online editions through our regional partners; presence on CashiersAreaChamber.com and DestinationCashiers.com website directory listings; distribution of your marketing materials through our high-profile office and visitor center to potential customers; referrals via the Chamber website and office, plus inclusion in related sites with hotlinks to your business; exclusive invitations to Chamber events and networking activities; and sponsorship opportunities to showcase your business.

Chamber Associate Membership (Annual investment $125): Exclusive invitations to support our civic initiative at Chamber functions hosted by local businesses and non-profit organizations and the opportunity to network with opinion leaders, stakeholders, our board of directors and other community members; and, ongoing communication including timely public service announcements about community activities and exclusive updates on the Chamber’s advocacy of local assets and initiatives.

The Chamber works diligently to ensure our unincorporated area receives its due reinvestment of Jackson County tax dollars, to protect and increase property values, and to enhance our quality of life on the Plateau.  We will continue to promote local economic prosperity through our representation on behalf of all our members to county, state, and federal officials.
