Mission: The Orion Area Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to creating a healthy local economy and building a strong and vibrant environment for economic growth.

Vision: The Orion Area Chamber of Commerce will enhance the business community by providing a robust foundation of accessible resources, advocacy, and strategic connections while creating a collaborative and supportive culture where businesses can thrive and prosper.

In ongoing efforts to achieve this lofty goal, we represent business to government, coordinate educational forums, host networking events, advocate for business-friendly legislation, and promote community.

The Chamber is a 501 (c) (6) non-profit organization, funded through chamber membership investments, sponsors, and fundraisers. We are a passionate team of 10 volunteer Board of Directors, 3 paid staffers, and nearly 350 enthusiastic members that generously share their time, talents, and treasures. Together we are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in the Orion area and are proud to offer an energetic and sunny environment in which businesses can joyfully flourish!
