The Truro & Colchester Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit, membership-based organization established in 1890. We advocate for local businesses, promote regional economic growth, and provide valuable connections and resources to support business success in the Truro and Colchester region.
Joining the TC Chamber connects your business with a supportive network and gives you a stronger voice in local advocacy. Members benefit from exclusive cost-saving programs, such as Chambers Plan Insurance, promotion opportunities, and get access to local initiatives.
Membership dues are structured to accommodate businesses of different sizes and needs. We also offer convenient renewal options to ease the process for our members. If you join partway through the year, your dues are pro-rated so you only pay for the remaining months of your membership.
Some examples of member benefits include Chamber Plan Insurance, Chamber Perks, tourism promotion, board room use, and advocacy efforts. To see all the benefits we have, check out our benefits page.
Our membership includes a diverse range of businesses across sectors, ranging from small local shops to larger regional employers. All with the goal of strengthening the local business environment. Fun Fact: over 79% of all TC Chamber Members have 10 Employees or less.
