Join the Gravenhurst Chamber of Commerce

Through member feedback and engagement, we serve as the voice of businesses in Gravenhurst and initiate advocacy efforts. Our Board of Directors is on top of everything happening in our community and always want to hear from you.

With the Ontario and Canadian Chambers of Commerce, we use our access to all levels of Government to help ensure our members’ collective views are heard.

Connect and create opportunities with other business owners, visitors and our community at large. Stay ahead of the game with our insider info on all things Gravenhurst.

You can take advantage of business education and outside and peer-based learning opportunities, and we’ll keep you in the loop about potential grants and awarded funding that may apply to your business.

You will be represented in our online and print directory, which is distributed annually throughout Ontario. You’ll get free inclusion of information in our weekly newsletter. You can host an After Hours event, inviting other members in to enjoy and learn more about your business. We have multiple opportunities for sponsorship such as The Gravenhurst Car Show, Santa Claus Parade and Gala.

Connect your business to people visiting our community through direct recommendations. Representation in our Experience Gravenhurst publications with large distribution throughout Ontario. Our Visitor’s Centre connected to our Service Ontario office ensures year-round foot traffic. We highlight experiences provided by businesses through our Chamber and Experience Gravenhurst tourism social media pages.

Your Chamber membership gives you access to benefits sought out and cultivated by our board and staff and passed along directly to you. You get a discounted rate for a presence in our Experience Gravenhurst Directory.

The Gravenhurst Chamber is a member of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, so we can offer our members access to a wide range of affinity programs.

You take care of your business. Let us take care of you (and your family). The Chamber Group Insurance Plan accepts businesses with as little as one employee and includes free legal and HR services.

This can often be a prohibitive cost for businesses, but our program makes it easy. In this labour market, you need to offer more to your employees to remain competitive, and we want to help you do that through programs like this one.

The Gravenhurst Chamber of Commerce manages several events throughout the year, giving you as a member prime access to sponsorship and participation opportunities. Our events include the Gravenhurst Santa Claus Parade (est. 1953), the Gravenhurst Car Show (est. 1994), our Chamber Winter Gala (est. 1995), and plenty more.

Every business hits speed bumps. We can smooth them. We can connect you to resources in the community. We do our best to stay aware of opportunities and prepare for challenges that impact our members.

Our weekly newsletter keeps you up to speed on government and other programs.

Our thinking is that we’re all in this together. Be part of the positive change in our community.
