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 partners to every community, every business, and every citizen.

While there is never a bad time to join the Chamber, it is currently a great time to get onboard as we are preparing to print and distribute our Delta County Membership Directory as part of the 2026 Visit Escanaba Visitors Guide and Business Directory. This comprehensive guide is utilized by locals and visitors alike and provides a great overview of our waterfront community. Inclusion in the printed and online directory is available only to members in good standing. Being listed in the Chamber Directory is a valuable way for members to gain visibility. With 10,000 copies printed and distributed to people seeking information about the community and local services, it’s an opportunity no business will want to miss.

In addition to our printed directory, when a business joins the Delta County Area Chamber of Commerce, they become part of a county-wide network of businesses that represents and promotes our community’s economy, education system, tourism initiatives and governmental concerns. Our organization is a catalyst through which business and professional people work together for the common good of the community.
