Our Mission

To serve as the lead advocate and resource for our members and to create partnerships that foster a healthy business climate.

The Fergus Falls Area Chamber of Commerce was started in 1886. The Chamber of Commerce is a group of retail, professional, and business people banded together as an organization to promote the economic well-being of our community and foster ethical business practices. In order to maintain a prosperous, attractive business district, it is necessary that an organization like the Chamber exists. We are the largest professional business membership organization in Otter Tail County, with 330+ members.

The chamber organizes promotional events for its business members, sponsors community activities such as Shop, Move 'n Groove in the summer, offers resources such as Fergus Bucks to promote local shopping, and provides community information to new residents and businesses to the area.

The Fergus Falls Area Chamber of Commerce is fully funded through membership investments, sponsorships, and special events. No city, county, state, or federal government taxes or funding is used to fund our Chamber.
