Working together to protect the economic, civic and cultural well-being of the area
We proactively identify issues affecting the business community and fight to protect our businesses’ best interest.
Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce serves as a lead advocate for business issues and works to create a business-friendly environment in our community — representing the interest of business on a local, state and federal level. The chamber seeks to influence legislation and regulation by local, state and federal governments in a proactive manner, supporting legislation that benefits businesses and the communities they reside in and, where necessary, opposing legislation that unnecessarily inhibits businesses.
With opportunities for investors to meet with elected officials through public policy forums, legislative receptions, and legislative visits, we stay one step ahead of issues facing the community.
Join us as we position our community and region for economic growth and success.
