The Prescott Chamber of Commerce was founded in 1910. Soon after, it took on the name of the Yavapai County Chamber of Commerce, but eventually regained its former identity as the Prescott Chamber and has stayed that way ever since. Today, the Chamber is active and providing leadership in many community events, while maintaining its interest in helping businesses succeed.

With over 1,000 Chamber members strong and growing, the Prescott Chamber is ranked No. 9 in the state. The Chamber is a significant asset to the community, offering a wealth of programs and events for the entire community to enjoy and appreciate. The Chamber also runs a comprehensive state designated Visitor Information Center with information about Prescott and the surrounding communities. Over 30,000 come through our front doors annually looking for information about the area, Chamber members and information about other cities around the state.

Thank you for your interest in the Prescott Chamber of Commerce, we are here to serve you. Please feel free to contact us or stop by anytime in “Everybody’s Hometown.”

MISSION STATEMENT

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

The Prescott Chamber of Commerce is your resource for business, economic development, and tourism. We are here to provide support and opportunities for our members through great networking events, unique advertising opportunities, local sponsorships, as well as campaigns that promote small business and shopping local. Despite the difficulties of 2020, the Chamber has been able to adapt and grow. By going virtual, our member events are no longer limited to the number of seats in a room. We have taken every precaution to ensure the safety and well-being of our members, staff, volunteers, and visitors while still moving forward and continuing to find ways to collaborate and connect our business community. No matter what your schedule, there is an opportunity for you to connect to elected officials, local business owners and potential new clients in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Coffee Connect, Women in Business, and New Member Breakfasts are just a few of the events the Chamber provides. Prescott Area Young Professionals (PAYP) is a great way for those

under the age of 40 to get involved in business and charity events. With the support of an amazing staff, ambassadors, and dedicated volunteers that stand behind our members we are able to provide a wealth of knowledge to the thousands of tourists and locals that visit our information center yearly. We remain dedicated to our members and our community as we look forward to a prosperous 2021.

We would love to show you how the Prescott Chamber of Commerce membership can impact your business and why we have more than 950 members. Come see what the Chamber can do for you!
