South Jordan Chamber of Commerce
The South Jordan Chamber was started in 2003 to help local businesses become stronger and new businesses could flourish. In 2022 we did a survey to see what the members want from their chamber. It came across loud and clear that they want more networking events that were not all at lunchtime. They also wanted great education that could help their businesses and help the owner/manager be better at their business. Many of our businesses said they needed more employees.
We have added:
• Hiring Events – both unskilled and skilled events
• Access to Reputation Reviews Platform
• Social media and newsletter promotions of your events
• Newsletter Spotlight (once/year)
• Podcast & Social Media Spotlight (once/year)
• Member-to-Member Discounts and a listing in our Member Directory

• More Networking Events – More than just lunchtime events
• More Education Events/Series including Chamber 101 classes to get more out of your chamber membership
• Multi-chamber events & Activities - Monthly

We started out as part of a larger chamber but found that the South Jordan businesses needed unique events and promotions. We broke off from that chamber and have been building stronger South Jordan businesses since.
