he Salt Lake Chamber is Utah's largest business
association and Utah's business leader. We stand as the
voice of business, support our members' success and
champion community prosperity.
As a statewide chamber of commerce, we represent
more than 8,000 businesses which employ nearly half
the workforce of our state. We are a capital city chamber
with a statewide mission and reach. The Chamber has members in all 29 Utah
counties, as well as 14 surrounding states and Washington, D.C. Nearly 80
percent of our membership is comprised of small businesses.
We have two strategic partners: the Downtown Alliance and World Trade
Center Utah. Currently, we have formal partnerships with 28 other chambers
of commerce and business associations. The Salt Lake Chamber also has
a formalized relationship with the World Bank Group and the International
Development Bank to act as the Intermountain West region's Private
Sector Liaison Officer, and has signed memorandums of agreement with 16
international chambers in Japan, Peru, the U.K., Mexico, China, Italy and more.
“The Chamber has an impact on
businesses of all sizes.”
–Maxine Turner, Cuisine Unlimited
“The Salt Lake Chamber fills an essential role
in our community as the voice of business on
public policy issues. Unlike single industry
associations, the Chamber gives a voice to
broad-based business issues in the community
and on the Hill.”
–A. Richard Walje, Policy Chair, Salt Lake Chamber, Executive Board
President & CEO, Rocky Mountain Power
The Chamber would not exist without
the dedication and support of our
community and business leaders.
With a history that dates back to
1887, our membership and influence
continues to grow.
Working as a team along with our
strategic partners, the Downtown
Alliance and World Trade Center Utah,
we have fortified one of the strongest
economies in the nation. An engaged
business community is capable of
accomplishing great things. We work
earnestly to promote an exceptional
statewide business climate and we
could not do it without your help.
We look forward to helping your
business thrive in future membership
