ESCANABA — The Delta County Area Chamber of Commerce provides an avenue for our businesspeople to play a leadership role in building a healthy, vibrant community. We are a partner to every community, every business, and every citizen.

When a business joins the Delta County Area Chamber of Commerce, they become part of a county-wide network of businesses that have come together to promote quality of life in our area through a healthy business climate. This type of network is more important than ever during these uncertain times.

During the last two regularly scheduled board meetings, seven businesses were presented and approved for membership by the Delta Chamber Board of Directors at their regularly scheduled March 14 Board Meeting.
