About the WAAC

West Ashley Area Chamber was formed in the Spring of 2018 and is a chartered subsidiary of its parent organization the Southeastern Chamber of Commerce. The divisional Chamber was created to serve and represent business residents West of the Ashley River, covering a specific mile radius within the City of Charleston .

 

Through this Chamber, members have the opportunity to strategically PARTICIPATE, PROFIT AND PROGRESS within a certain mile radius of where they live, learn and earn. Members have access to leads, referral services, networking, training, events, professional development seminars, which foster opportunity for the promotion of their business products and services. This Chamber serves as a

non-competing party to other local Chambers and is united in focal efforts around the revitalization and progression of West Ashley only.

 

We strive to give West Ashley a much needed voice by empowering, informing, and helping our residents and business owners. We work to enhance our community of neighborhoods and businesses through advocacy and community involvement with a commitment to diversity and conservation.
