SHIP BOTTOM, N.J. - JerseyDesk -- The Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce reports continued efforts to move local business, consumer outreach and trusted resources to the forefront during a year that began with most locked down from Covid19. "The 2021 outcomes are a community success," stated Southern Ocean Chamber President Jeremy DeFillippis, "it shows how the LBI Region businesses rallied to adjust to a better experience for all under unprecedented circumstances". The Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce, a non profit organization that operates with no public funding, but  through member dues, sponsorships and fundraising efforts such as Chowderfest, has continued to find solutions for the local economy since 1914.

The outcomes for 2021 show dedication on many levels, due to the difficulty many businesses had in overcoming pandemic challenges. The chamber held 35 meetings and events, gathering over 1340 individual business representatives. The organization took part in 11 ribbon cuttings, received 22 sponsorships, and had 94 businesses participate in online and in person consumer shows such as the Virtual Wedding Road Show, which will be back in person this April 24. The chamber also welcomed 65 new members during 2021.
