About Us
The West Ashley Chamber of Commerce was established in 2018 to serve as a dedicated business advocate for the communities and commercial corridors west of the Ashley River. As a proud affiliate of the Southeastern Chamber of Commerce, we combine the strength of a regional network with a hyper-local focus on West Ashley.
​
Our Chamber exists to support the businesses, entrepreneurs, and residents who live, work, and invest in West Ashley. We focus on a defined geographic footprint within the City of Charleston, allowing us to be intentional, accessible, and deeply connected to the needs of our local business community.
​
Members of the West Ashley Chamber gain opportunities to connect, grow, and lead locally through curated networking, referrals, professional development, business education, and community-driven events. We emphasize real relationships, practical exposure, and meaningful opportunities that help businesses move from visibility to viability.
​
The West Ashley Chamber operates collaboratively, complementing, not competing with, other chambers and business organizations, while remaining singularly focused on the economic vitality and long-term growth of West Ashley. Our work centers on strengthening neighborhood business districts, supporting smart development, and ensuring West Ashley has a strong, unified business voice.
​
At our core, we are committed to empowering local businesses, engaging residents, and advocating for a thriving West Ashley. Through partnerships, community involvement, and forward-thinking leadership, we aim to help shape a district that is vibrant, resilient, and positioned for the future.

“It's just a different type of Chamber. They are non-traditional, and they actually listen to the voice of the small biz community.”

So far, so good!”
