The Greater Wildwood Chamber of Commerce, a coalition of businesses on the five-mile island that comprises the Wildwoods and its surrounding communities, has served the island since 1938. Based on the NJ Biz annual report, Greater Wildwood Chamber of Commerce is currently ranked the 12th largest chamber in New Jersey.
Our mission is to foster positive growth, development, and tourism in the Wildwoods - while respecting the island’s unique quality of life - to the benefit of our membership and community. The Greater Wildwood Chamber of Commerce is recognized and respected for extending the tourist season with off-season events, strengthening the collaborative partnerships among our members and for promoting the advantages of visiting, working, and living in the Wildwoods. We serve as a business advocate for all of our members and the five-mile island known as Wildwood.
The Chamber hosts monthly membership luncheons, quarterly mixers, and breakfasts to provide an opportunity for our members to network and keep informed about our island and pertinent issues relating to business. Annual meetings include the Financial Forecast, Cape May County Tourism Update and State of the Cities Mayoral Reports. The Greater Wildwood Chamber also sponsors workshops and seminars, affording its members access to relevant and affordable resources for Business and Community Development.
Annually, the Chamber publishes The Best of the Wildwoods Vacation Planner, the only Chamber book specifically dedicated to the Wildwoods, for visitors but it also serves as a useful resource to year-round residents and second homeowners. The publication, available in both print and online, promotes our island to hundreds of thousands of vacationers. Printed copies are distributed via direct mail, travel shows, in AAA offices in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Delaware, Connecticut, Maryland and Ohio, at rest stops in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and from free distribution boxes placed throughout the Wildwoods and locations within Cape May County.
The Chamber can also help you promote your business through our high-traffic web site, distribution of your brochures/rack cards/menus in our Downtown Tourism Information Center, e-mail blasts, and in hosting grand opening events.
