Chamber Information

What is the Chamber of Commerce?

The Baxley-Appling County Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary organization composed of businesses, professional, civic and educational leaders united together to fulfill the mission of the organization. Funding for this non-profit organization comes primarily from membership investments, and volunteers accomplish the Program of Work of the Chamber with the assistance of a small staff.

In 1948, the Baxley-Appling County Chamber of Commerce was established by concerned business persons in the community who saw a need for an organization which could deal with emerging challenges in the area while supporting the excellent traditions of the community. Through many years the Chamber has been a strong voice for the business community and has provided many services to its members and its entire community. Opportunities to serve the area have expanded and developed, and the Baxley-Appling County Chamber of Commerce remains a viable and valuable business organization today.
