Full Testimonials
I opened my business Rise 3 years ago and have worked with the MACC since day one. The support I’ve received from them has always been top notch. I continue to grow every year and every year they offer the support I need to keep my business thriving. Mike Griffin (chamber executive director) helped make a dream of mine a reality by backing my idea for a brand new festival, Boho Bazaar in our small, quaint little town this year and we had such a tremendous turn out that wildly exceeded my expectations. If you’re a small business in town and are not currently a member I highly recommend hopping on board and joining this wonderful, supportive organization.

When I opened Meredith Landing Real Estate I knew the first thing I would need was the support of my community. I was not new to Meredith, having grown up here and now raising my own family here and I was not new to the Meredith Area Chamber of Commerce as I had for many years directed people to the “Welcome Center” for information on our town and upcoming events. I was, however, unfamiliar with just how vital becoming a member of the MACC would be.
One of the first calls I made when Meredith Landing was established was to the MACC to see where I would fit in as a new business in town. They welcomed me with open arms and provided limitless tools that have been so beneficial to me and the growth of Meredith Landing. One of the first orders of business was a beautiful ribbon cutting that was well attended, thanks to the outreach of MACC, and shared with other members and community through their impressive social media and digital database.
It didn’t, and hasn’t, stopped there. The MACC has been a crucial component of Meredith Landing’s success. We are honored to co-host the annual Christmas Party with them; participate in local events that MACC brings to life in our community and to be a small part of their vision to bring local businesses together by working collaboratively and cohesively.
We are so excited to see where this partnership with MACC takes us and would highly recommend for all businesses, new and old, to become a member.
