It’s that time of year again to join or renew your membership with the Antwerp Chamber of Commerce. Your ongoing financial support is what enables the Chamber to operate throughout the year. We remain focused and dedicated to promoting, protecting, and preserving the businesses within our community.

2025 was a strong year for the Chamber. We held ribbon-cutting ceremonies for several new businesses, and our second annual Shop Local First event continued to grow. Additional activities included participating in Antwerp Days and Day in the Park, hosting multiple Trivia Nights, expanding our Christmas decorations for the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, and welcoming many participants to our summer Candy Bar Bingo. Several businesses also hosted After Hours events, each well attended. During the Community Garage Sales, we hosted a Purse Sale, with all proceeds donated toward fireworks for the Rock on the River event.

A new year of membership brings new opportunities to strengthen and grow the Antwerp Chamber of Commerce. Our vitality comes from the unity of our local businesses and our visible presence in the community.
