Chamber Initiatives

The Fall River Area Chamber of Commerce was founded in 1911 with one simple objective:

The Chamber serves in the interests of local businesses.

Almost one hundred years later, that objective still drives everything we do at the Chamber of Commerce. It is also stated within our mission, provided below:

The mission of the Fall River Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry is to be the primary business and community information source for its members and the public; to provide networking opportunities for its members; and serve as an advocate, on behalf of its members, at the local, state and federal government levels.

Your Chamber is Working to Create a Better Future

The Chamber is the collective voice of local business. We make our community an even better place by helping businesses succeed.

Alignment of multiple stakeholders around common economic issues and interests creates greater momentum and return on investment. The Chamber identifies such alignments and works to leverage them into mutually beneficial results. The Chamber then serves as a facilitator and leader, helping build clear pathways to action, realize opportunities, solve problems and address emerging economic issues within our region in a collaborative way.

Recent initiatives enacted by the Chamber’s Board of Directors are listed below. Armed with a clear vision the Chamber’s membership is poised for an exciting and successful future in business in and around the greater Fall River area.
