PROMOTING ECONOMIC GROWTH IN #CHESCOWEST

MISSION

Our mission is to connect members to new ideas, resources and relationships to achieve their goals. Our vision is for a thriving region that is well-connected, innovative and accessible for community and business growth. We're committed to being  the leading resource for businesses and organizations in our community, to build regional cooperation to strengthen business retention, growth and revitalization, and to enhance value for members through education and events.

SUPPORTING AND REPRESENTING YOUR BEST INTEREST

Business owners need someone representing their best interests every day. Since 1916, the Western Chester County Chamber of Commerce has been that presence.

We are a member-driven organization, representing small businesses to large companies, from retail to manufacturing to tourism to agriculture. We are guided by business leaders, working to improve ChescoWest's business climate.

The answer of what can a membership with the Chamber of Commerce do for you, is entirely dependent on what your type of business needs. A retail store owner may not need the same things as a manufacturer, in the same way that a farmer is looking for resources much different than a dentist. WCC Chamber pushes up our sleeves and focuses on providing 5 branches of service to its members; education and resources, networking, advocacy and visibility.

WHERE IS WCCCC?

Western Chester County Chamber of Commerce’s office has been located in the City of Coatesville since 1916. We were created when three leaders, A. F. Huston (Lukens Steel), Harry I. Schotter (Electric Light Company), and F. W. Harris (Midvale Steel Plant) came together during the big industrialization of the area with a goal to fill the growing needs of the business community. Since then, WCCCC has forged paths for businesses through the great depression, Black Monday, our present-day global pandemic and the tough times and positive revitalizations our communities have experienced in the last 106 years. During that time, we have expanded our area to serve the 24 municipalities that make up the western region of Chester County, fondly known as ChescoWest.  Today our service area includes:

Atglen Borough, Borough of Modena, Borough of Parkesburg, Borough of South Coatesville, Caln Township, Christiana Borough, City of Coatesville, East Brandywine, East Nantmeal, East Fallowfield, Elverson Borough, Highland Township, Honeybrook Township, Honeybrook Borough, Sadsbury Township, Wallace Township, West Bradford, West Brandywine, West Caln, West Fallowfield, West Nantmeal, West Sadsbury, Valley Township
