welcome to the Rockford chamber of commerce


The Rockford Chamber of Commerce has been a leader in our community for over 100 years. Over that time, we've helped many thousands of businesses grow and expand. We constantly advocate for investment in our community's quality of life.

The founding officers and members of the Chamber wanted the organization to be "a forceful working unit for the good of Rockford." As we move forward for the next 100 years, we remain committed to this important work.


Nominations are now being accepted for the 2020 Rockford Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year! Nominations are due Friday, December 27.
 
The Rockford Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year Award is presented to an individual citizen of the Rockford area who has made an extraordinary contribution to the welfare and progress of the community, generally over a period of years. The person nominated for the award does not need to be a member of the Rockford Chamber of Commerce.
