About Our Membership

The Canal Winchester Chamber is the intersection of where businesses, residents and local leaders meet. We are open and welcoming of all businesses. We want to see you succeed. We believe where strong businesses succeed and grow so does the community. We understand the challenges facing our businesses and work together to help provide workable solutions whether that’s sharing hiring openings, promoting your business or helping you connect with other area business owners.

The main reason many join a chamber is for the opportunity to network among local business owners, operators, and industry experts. We strive to deliver more!  We provide businesses with access to resources, discounts, and relationships that enable them to save money, market their products, and streamline their processes. If you have a suggestion for additional benefits, let us know!
