What is the Chamber?

Established in 1910, the Moultrie Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce is a stand alone, not-for-profit organization supported by its members, which include local businesses and leaders who care about our community. It is an organization that unites business people and creates coalitions to expand the economy and improve quality of life. The Chamber helps promote business growth, serves its members with personal and professional development opportunities, and makes decisions that will benefit the Colquitt County business community.

The Chamber is the voice of the business community on local, state, and national levels. It is our commitment to help our area to grow and prosper. We believe in a strong, vibrant business community that contributes resources to ensure an exceptional quality of life.

With 100 years of experience, we have worked with businesses, industry, professionals, and civic groups to provide educational, networking, and growth opportunities through membership.
