The Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce is one of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ fastest growing chambers, with more than 1,000 members, including small businesses, global enterprises, independent businesspeople, and civic-minded individuals.

We proudly serve all four Cape Ann communities – Essex, Gloucester, Manchester-by-the-Sea, and Rockport. Much of our work is focused in these areas:

  • Promoting the region and raising the visibility of our members among residents and visitors
  • Helping businesses thrive by fostering connections, providing training and education, and offering programs that benefit these organizations
  • Addressing the economic, educational, and cultural needs of Cape Ann by providing support for key community priorities

The Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce offers its members a broad range of resources, including three websites (more than 400,000 views annually), three annual publications (printing more than with 260,000 copies), dozens of workshops and seminars, and a number of member savings programs, referral services and networking opportunities. We work closely with community and government leaders on economic, cultural and educational initiatives, and sponsor events across the region.
