Welcome to the Manatee Chamber of Commerce

Headliners Luncheon

What does the future hold for Lakewood Ranch that will enhance our region and continue to be a catalyst for economic development? Join us in welcoming Lakewood Ranch’s Laura Cole to share a perspective on 30 years of development and where the Ranch is headed for the next 30 years.

Candidate Questionnaires

The Manatee Chamber invited qualified candidates for several local races to respond to questions from the Chamber. These candidate questionnaires are part of our “get out the vote” efforts. The Manatee Chamber does not endorse candidates. We seek to inform our members of important issues and ensure they can access voter information easily.

“The Chamber has been a great supporter of the airport’s efforts to improve air service and was an important element in attracting new airlines. Their assistance is an important part of our sales pitches to airlines and their support is valued greatly.”

“Our relationship with the Better Business Council has provided an incredible stream of referrals for our firm.  And the resource of locating quality BBC businesses and services we need is just as valuable.

It’s reassuring to know that all the BBC members have met a stringent review of licensing, insurance, references and past performance that sets the highest of standards in our business community.”

“I have attended two Facebook and one Google seminar at the Manatee Chamber of Commerce.  Due to the knowledge that I received, we were able to increase our SEO level from landing on page 10 of a category search to landing on page one and being the first or second on the listings.  I would highly recommend attending the Chamber seminars.  Great information that can help your company achieve success!!”
