• About Us

  • The Franklin Area Chamber of Commerce has been representing the interests of the local business community since 1913. It is our mission to promote economic growth and enhance the quality of life for our members and their communities. Our members know that, by working together, we can play a leading role in improving the local business climate, recruiting and retaining business and industry, attracting visitors to the area, and using our combined influence for legislation that supports all these goals.

    The Franklin Area Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary organization of the business community. It is not a civic club, charitable organization, or department of city government. The Chamber is a private, not for profit tax-paying corporation. It unites hundreds of businesses and professionals while creating a unique central agency working to improve business and build a better community. Over 80% of the membership is composed of small businesses interested in prospering and creating a healthy environment in which to conduct business. But most important, the Chamber consists of people who realize that together they can accomplish collectively what none of us can do individually. The strength of the Chamber lies in attracting the greatest number of members, creating a pool of resources from which can be drawn ideas, energy, and finances to increase the Quality of Life throughout the region.
