About the Chamber
It doesn’t get any better than this. In the shadow of the majestic Superstition Mountains, the Apache Junction Chamber of Commerce represents a diverse group of businesses located in a varied geographic region extending east of the metropolitan Phoenix area in Pinal County.
In the early 1960s, a flourishing business community was forming along the Apache Trail. In June 1960, the Apache Junction Chamber of Commerce incorporated for the purpose of “fostering and promoting social, economic, commercial, industrial, agricultural and civic interests of the area of Apache Junction, Pinal County, Arizona, and its trade area.” As with most chambers of commerce, business leaders felt the need for representation as a business community, and for a group to promote the then-unincorporated community of Apache Junction.
Today, the Apache Junction Chamber partners with federal, state and local entities, community organizations, and the business community to create an environment that is attractive to positive economic growth and opportunities. With the support of our members, the Chamber will continue to represent their interests, develop programs that give value to their membership, and give members the needed support that allows them to grow and prosper.
Just shy of 50 years old, the Chamber offers benefits and advocacy for over 450 Chamber members. Serving the areas surrounding Apache Junction, the Chamber facility also houses the Apache Junction Visitor’s Center that serves 30,000 walk-in visitors each year. The Chamber also provides information to 12,000 tourists and new residents via telephone inquiries, and sends out 1,500 information packets each year.
The Apache Junction Main Street Program/Community Development Corporation focuses on downtown revitalization with activities, advocacy and projects targeting the two-mile downtown segment.
The Apache Junction Chamber is focused on giving the business community the opportunity to advertise, network, save money, as well as advocacy at all levels. If you are not already a member of the Chamber, please consider joining. We are committed to making Apache Junction a great place to live, work and prosper.
