The SC Small Business Chamber of Commerce, a statewide advocacy organization working to make state government more small business friendly. The Small Business Chamber is both non-partisan and non-profit. We do not endorse candidates for public office nor contribute to political campaigns. We are not affiliated with any other chamber of commerce.
Since our beginning in February of 2000, we strive to represent the general interests of small business in state government, although from time to time we do take on local and federal issues. Taxes, health insurance, workforce development, economic development, energy, utility rates, workers’ compensation insurance, and government procurement policies are some of the issues we are addressing to benefit small business.
Our BuySC program encourages South Carolinians to make purchases from locally-owned small businesses. Buying local has THREE TIMES the impact on the local economy than buying from a big-box chain store or restaurant.
