Running a business on Salt Spring isn’t easy. It takes courage, creativity, and an incredible amount of heart. Whether you’re a solopreneur, a shop owner, a farmer, a maker, or part of a growing team—being in business here means you’re deeply invested in this island and its people.
Joining the Chamber is more than just adding your name to a directory. It’s about connecting with the wider business community, amplifying your presence, and being part of something bigger: a collective voice for Salt Spring's economy, culture, and future.
We’ve been rethinking what Chamber membership means—what it should mean—for 2025 and beyond. Because just “being a member” doesn’t cut it anymore. You deserve clear value for your investment. And we’re here to deliver it.
Unlike most communities, Salt Spring doesn't have a municipal government. That means there’s no mayor or city council to speak on behalf of local businesses.
In this unique governance landscape, the Chamber plays a vital role — serving as one of the few organized voices for the business community.
Joining the Chamber gives you a seat at the table when it comes to the future of the island. We listen, gather feedback, and show up in key conversations about development, infrastructure, tourism, and economic planning.
If you want to have a say in the direction Salt Spring is heading—this is where you do it.
Because Salt Spring is changing. Because small businesses are facing more challenges—and more opportunities—than ever.
And because no one succeeds alone.
The Chamber is evolving into a more vibrant, responsive, and resourceful organization. When you join, you’re not just investing in your business—you’re investing in a stronger Salt Spring.
