The Ocean Reef Chamber of Commerce

The Ocean Reef Chamber of Commerce (Chamber), like many chambers around the country, serves the local business community by providing networking opportunities, advocacy with local municipal bodies and educational resources to help with “best practices” in various areas including human resources, marketing and technology.

BUT did you know the Chamber also exists to equally benefit the members of Ocean Reef as well?  Whether you are here for a few weeks, six months, or you are a permanent resident, the Chamber has a number of programs - to not only ensure you receive high quality service from your local vendors - but we also seek to engage and support the community in many different ways.  Here are a few that might be of interest to you:

1)      Dispute Resolution:  Businesses that are members of the Chamber are committed to customer satisfaction. Member businesses and their employees are subject to stringent background checks.  They have all agreed if there are issues with a customer they will participate in the Chambers mediation process to seek a settlement arrangement through our Dispute Resolution Committee. The decision of the committee is required to be followed by all Members to maintain active status in the Chamber.

2)      Giving Back – The Chamber is also committed to giving back to the Ocean Reef community.  Two key examples are:  the Chamber’s support for the Ocean Reef Community Foundation’s All Charities Weekend when Chamber members contribute both financially and by donating auction items.  The Chamber also hosts a food and drink tent during that time to enhance the resident’s experience while coming out to bid on items.  Lastly the Annual Chamber Golf Tournament, open to Chamber and Ocean Reef members, which provides scholarships to deserving children of employees of Chamber businesses that serve the community.  Our 2017 Tournament is scheduled for Thursday, May 4^th.

3)      Monthly Luncheon Series:  Chamber and Ocean Reef members are invited to join our monthly luncheon series to hear from engaging speakers on any number of topics.  We routinely have local, state and federal politicians address issues affecting the future of our community and the economy.  If you are a member or resident still active in business, your Chamber has brought in leaders from across numerous fields to speak about their experiences and what makes them successful.  There have been engaging topics that provide something for everyone such as; How to Grow Your Profits, Develop Your People and Communication Skills, and Latest Trends in Marketing and Social Media topics.

These are just some of the ways in which your Chamber serves both local businesses and residents of our wonderful community and why we believe so strongly in our “Choose Chamber” slogan.  If you would like additional information about your Chamber, Chamber businesses, or simply want to be added to our mailing list for reminders about our luncheon series or other events go to our website:
