About Us
Our Mission
The mission statement of the Genoa Area Chamber of Commerce is to: "advance and develop commercial, agricultural, industrial, civic and general interests of the Village of Genoa and all adjacent communities". We are a diverse organization promoting many activities.
The Genoa Chamber is an all-volunteer organization that encourages its members to get involved in all the activities: such as membership, special events and communications.
Our website is updated monthly, or as needed, to keep members and the community up-to-date on current events, member listings and other timely issues.
"Business After Hours" is a fun event. They are well attended, you get to visit a great location, learn about the business and it's a chance for like-minded business and community people to get together.
The Genoa Area Chamber of Commerce offers a scholarship to a Genoa High School student majoring in business.
Through its association with the Northern Ohio Area Chambers of Commerce (NOACC), the Genoa Chamber is able to offer member benefits that rival large chambers, such as: health, life, disability, and long-term care insurance, workers compensation group rating programs, managed care organizations, retirement plan administration, credit card and payroll processing. Other benefits include: discounts on business planning workbooks, employee testing, shipping and freight, website development and wellness programs.
The Chamber encourages leaders to get to know one another, share ideas for the enrichment of the community, work together and helping the area grow. There's strength in numbers, so we invite you to join today.
