"There's a Member for that!...

You’ll Feel Better. 
We're not saying you should pay more, just asking that you look here first.  It simply is the right thing to do...shopping in the community you live just makes common sense.  Chamber members are businesses in good standing and If you can’t find it in our directory you have full permission to look elsewhere!

Do the Math.
"Something you may not realize?"...  Keeping local business healthy is a way to keep your residential property taxes down.  The percentage of tax revenues business contributes here is higher than the average for municipalities in Ontario.  Supporting Owen Sound Chamber members keeps those tax dollars flowing.  As you also know, factor in your gas, your meals, or shipping fees, not to mention the long line ups at the malls, traffic congestion...and is it worth it? 

We Love our Community.
When you shop in our community, you simultaneously create jobs, fund more services like education and emergency services.  More out of each dollar spent with Chamber member businesses stays here.

Get Better Service.
You know who you’re dealing with. It is no secret that Chamber members of Owen Sound are some of the friendliest people you will come across. 

Well Being.
Our member businesses build strong neighbourhoods by sustaining communities, contributing to local charities, supporting sports teams, service clubs, school activities and the list goes on.

Help the Environment.
Reduce your environmental footprint and save money at the same time. You’re not burning fuel and contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.

Keep Our Area Unique.
We have a variety of unique specialty shops and products. These businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of our area.
