The Official Web Site of Newburyport Massachusetts - Greater Newburyport Chamber of Commerce and Industry
Description edit
The Greater Newburyport Chamber of Commerce & Industry was founded and incorporated in 1966 by a group of business people who had a vision to form an organization that would be instrumental in key Newburyport urban renewal and development efforts. The new Chamber supported the multi-million-dollar restoration of downtown and its waterfront in the 70’s, which today is a bustling center of commerce. It also supported the development of three dormant farms into a flourishing industrial park that today houses close to 70 businesses who employ more than 3,000 people and boast a payroll in excess of $95 million.
It is because of this steady economic growth and healthy business development that the Chamber has proudly grown from a handful of members in the early years to more than 850 today, making it one of the largest Chambers in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Today, the needs of members are the same, yet different. The Chamber has evolved into a group of people who own, manage and represent all forms of business. Members range from industrialists to retail merchants and restaurant owners, from banks and financial centers to professional services and sole proprietors, from recreation providers to people whose livelihoods are related to the sea, from non-profit organizations and civic institutions to schools and individual consultants. Many of these members and their businesses are located in Newburyport and surrounding communities, but many also come from the greater North Shore region and southern New Hampshire.
