Why Join the Chamber?

Our Mission

​The Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce’s mission is to strengthen the local economy and serve as the Voice of Business in community affairs.

Our History

​The Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce was established in 1882 as the Santa Fe Board of Trade; the Chamber has since been the voice of the region’s business community. The Chamber has helped turn the Santa Fe area into one of the best places in the country to live, work and raise a family all while helping over 700 member businesses thrive.

Our Achievements

The Chamber’s Board of Directors identifies key priorities that support the mission and create clear collaborations with other organizations. Chief among these is job creation, increasing the supply of income-appropriate housing, workforce development, and business advocacy. The Chamber acts as the catalyst, convener, and champion for our community and does so in the following ways:
