About Us

The Chandler Chamber of Commerce was founded before the city of Chandler was officially incorporated in May 1912. In those early years, the Chamber was more than a business organization. It was the engine of civic development, responsible for getting roads paved, floodwaters controlled, and streetlights installed across a community that didn't yet have a city government to do it.

More than a century later, we are one of the largest and most active chambers in Arizona, a recognized leader in business advocacy, workforce development, economic data and research, and community building. We represent member businesses across the East Valley, serving as the official voice of 172,000 employees.

Our advocacy reaches from Chandler City Hall to the Arizona State Capitol, and our programs connect classrooms with careers, data with decisions, and businesses with the resources they need to grow. We've earned a reputation built over 100 years as the organization that shows up, speaks up, and delivers for Chandler business.

Chandler is consistently ranked the number one Best Place to Live, Work and Play in Arizona, the number one Best Place in Arizona to Live for Families, and one of the top cities in the U.S. to find a job. We're proud to have played a role in building the community those rankings reflect.
