What is the Chamber?

The mission of the Greater Perryville Chamber of Commerce is to promote economic opportunity through business and community leadership and to enhance the social and civic environment of Perryville and surrounds. The Greater Perryville Chamber of Commerce is a business organization of approximately 50 members representing several hundred employees. The Chamber works with city officials, local businesses and the community at large to promote the local economy.

Within that mission statement, there are several elements, but first and foremost, we serve as the voice of business in Perryville. We are a membership organization that believes in the importance of creating a sense of community among local businesses. Our members are from every industry, large and small, old and new, from home based business just starting out to very large businesses with thousands of employees.

To accomplish its mission, the Chamber relies on the efforts of our members, our Board of Directors , volunteers and the generosity of companies who sponsor our events.

We are currently a relatively small organization, but the Town of Perryville is growing fast. Easy access to the primary North/South interstate highway, I95, and a rail station serving the Washington DC to New York Amtrac. The station also services the MARC commuter system running from Perryville through Baltimore to Washington DC. The new industrial estate in Perryville is designated as an enterprise zone by the State of Maryland..

New industrial and residential developments are currently in progress, which will inevitably bring more people to the town, and new members to the Chamber of Commerce. If you would like to join us, you can submit an application form from this website.
