SIERRA MADRE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

 The mission of the Sierra Madre Chamber of Commerce 
is to encourage a healthy business environment by 
advancing, promoting, and supporting the businesses 
serving our Sierra Madre community. 

 We are the business voice of Sierra Madre at City Hall 
and represent your interests in all other local, state and 
federal agencies. We closely monitor laws and actions 
that will impact your business. And we do this, even 
during times of crisis.

 In 2020/2021, we helped the city develop the Cares 
Program which provided some financial relief for 
qualified Sierra Madre Businesses. We also played 
an instrumental role in helping the city develop the 
expanded outdoor dining areas for our members.

 In 2021 we also managed to have our Honors/Citizen 
of the Year Dinner thanking community volunteers and 
organizations who, in 2020 helped the community and 
your business through the pandemic.

 And, in an effort to get back to ‘normal’ we held a very 
successful Winter Festival (Small Business Saturday 
event), to bring residents and visitors to town to support 
you.

 Although postponed due to the Omnicom Variant, 
we have postponed our 2021 Honors Dinner, but it will 
happen soon. AND

On March 27, 2022 we will once again have our Wistaria 
Festival which brings thousands of people into town 
to partake of the wonderful shopping and service 
opportunities in town!

 Also in 2022, we will be working on a new branding 
campaign, ‘Shop Sierra Madre’ to bring shoppers remind/introduce all residents and even more visitors to our city. 

 Virtual networking opportunities and informational meetings are also on our agenda!

 

We do all this and much more, promoting Sierra Madre as a ‘Destination’ as our goal! Whenever the "Chamber" does something, the community sees it as local 
businesses supporting the community. So, please join our efforts today! Joining the Sierra Madre Chamber adds you to the list of the most highly esteemed, trustworthy 
and credible businesses in the Community. Please visit our website at: www.sierramadrechamber.com.

and valued neighborhood for individuals, families, community groups and businesses. 

We do this by making direct financial grants to support Sierra Madre activities, events, organizations and programs.
