Meet the Chairman & President
Welcome to the Gulf Breeze Area Chamber of Commerce website and our community, one of the best places in Florida to live, raise a family and grow a business.
The Gulf Breeze Chamber was established in 1988 to advocate for and support the prosperity of Gulf Breeze and area businesses. Our community is truly blessed to have world class leaders, business owners, educators and citizens who share in this responsibility.
As the 2022 Chamber Chairman of the Board, I am honored to work alongside our dedicated Board who all share the same vision of business growth and quality of life. We continue to partner with local government and other organizations to pursue improvements in the overall quality of life for the city, county, and region, particularly in the areas of education, healthcare, tourism, economic development, community development, and workforce development.
If you are not a member of the Gulf Breeze Area Chamber, please join us today. We are always creating new networking and promotional opportunities to help our member businesses succeed and grow. We host great events like Taste of Gulf Breeze, the Fairways to Freedom Golf Tournament and the Gulf Breeze Holiday Parade that allow our members to gain visibility and the community to come together. We also support collaborative efforts with the other local Chambers that provide additional opportunities for our members to initiate or build business relationships. The Chamber office staff is available to anyone who seeks information regarding our community. Your membership will benefit your business and the community.
Our community is an excellent place to do business and an excellent community in which to live. As the Chamber of Commerce Board Chairman, I want to encourage you to become active in the community and in our Chamber of Commerce. Please review our Facebook page and our website for opportunities where you can help make a positive difference in our community.
To our current Chamber members, thank you for your continued support. For those of you considering relocating your business or opening a new business in the Gulf Breeze area, you will find that becoming a Chamber member is of great value to you. Gulf Breeze is thriving, join us as we continue to grow.
Thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you.
Sincerely,
Christa Wilson
