Powell River Chamber of Commerce reaches 200 members

The Powell River Chamber of Commerce has reached a milestone, welcoming its 200th member earlier this month.

The organization’s membership includes businesses of all sizes, non-profits, community organizations and industry leaders.

The chamber says membership helps businesses build connections, collaborate and access opportunities. It also advocates for local business interests and a stronger regional economy.

“To our members: thank you for your support, engagement, and belief in the value of doing business together,” the chamber said on social media. “We are proud to champion your success and advocate for a vibrant future for our region. Here’s to 200 members, new connections, and many more milestones ahead!”

The chamber is encouraging more businesses and organizations to join its network and take advantage of membership benefits.
