TSACC New Structure & Mission Statement
Evolving to Serve Business Better

TSACC has shifted to a modern chamber model inspired by the Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) and Canadian Chamber of Commerce. We will concentrate our efforts on three core pillars:

1. Advocacy – Acting as the trusted, non-partisan voice of business in our region. We research local issues, develop evidence-based positions, and represent our members to all levels of government to create a competitive business climate.
2. Enhanced Member Communication – Keeping members informed through a streamlined newsletter or regular emails and a refreshed Chamber website with a dedicated blog. We will share concise, actionable updates on funding opportunities, government programs, and events relevant to business growth.
3. Enhanced Digital Presence – Launching a robust, sector-searchable Business Directory website showcasing all area businesses, with premium placement and extra features for TSACC members to increase visibility and reach.

 

• Well-built and reliable – stable, secure, and not prone to technical issues.
• Full-featured – offering powerful search and filtering so visitors can easily find businesses by sector, service, or location.
• Scalable and resilient – able to handle growth (more listings, more visitors) without problems.

Continuing Service
We will continue to support free grand openings & milestone celebrations to maintain a strong public presence. TSACC will provide ribbon and scissors and notify municipal representatives and local media, but will not organize the events.

This streamlined structure positions TSACC to deliver measurable value, with future adjustments as resources grow.

Mission Statement

The Temiskaming Shores & Area Chamber of Commerce is the indispensable partner of business in our region. We champion local economic growth through principled advocacy, deliver timely intelligence and resources to our members, and showcase our business community through a powerful digital presence.
