About Us - Carson Chamber of Commerce
The Carson Chamber of Commerce was founded in 1962. We understand the needs of the business community and consistently strive to effectively represent the best interests of its membership.
The Chamber is also dedicated to making the City of Carson a stable, friendly community in which to work, shop, reside and play.
Our greatest resource is our members. The Carson Chamber Board consists of business and professional members who have united for the purpose of business and community involvement. This involves working together with the entire community in generating a sound economic base for growth. Although the Chamber is the "voice of business," it takes pride in going beyond that to reflect the feelings and the needs of an entire community.
