The KCK Chamber is excited to serve as the convener and connector for local and regional businesses to collaborate on efforts that improve the economic vitality and quality of life for our diverse region. The KCK Chamber represents over 500 business member companies from all over the region. Over sixty percent of our membership comprises business owners with 25 or fewer employees. Established in 1898 as the Mercantile Club of Kansas City, Kansas, a local group of businessmen formed a membership-based group that set about growing the community and would later be re-named and established as the Kansas City Kansas Chamber of Commerce in 1918. Since that time, the Chamber has been a leading voice of the business community in KCK and surrounding areas. The KCK community has experienced exponential economic growth over the last decade, and the KCK Chamber is at the forefront of that success by enhancing and leveraging the talents and resources of its diverse Members to sustain and catapult development opportunities throughout the Metropolitan area. The KCK Chamber is a membership-based organization led by a volunteer board representing businesses and non-profits of varying sizes and sectors. The day-to-day work is handled by a paid staff of full-time employees. The staff works with a variety of committees made up of Members and the Board of Directors. Membership with the KCK Chamber offers numerous benefits and keeps business owners on top of important, ever-changing issues and trends within Wyandotte County. Chamber Members have the opportunity to participate in exceptional programs, gain exposure for their business at numerous networking events and take advantage of the many business services we provide.
