about the chamber
The Holland-Springfield area is one of the fastest
growing communities in Northwest Ohio. The development of office and
commercial parks such as the Holland Business Center, Springdale
Industrial Park, and Wolfe Creek Executive Park have attracted many new
businesses to the area.
Several new retail developments and restaurant establishments have
rapidly expanded into the vicinity. In addition, an increasing number of
residential developments offering a variety of price ranges, together
with an excellent comprehensive Springfield Local School system, offer
residents a pleasant place to live.
The Holland-Springfield Chamber of Commerce was incorporated on October
17, 1990. Serving both the Village of Holland and Springfield Township,
the Chamber strives to promote economic development and business growth
by creating a favorable business climate. The Chamber also provides a
united voice for businesses by making their needs known to local
government officials.
The Holland-Springfield Chamber of Commerce takes an active role in
creating an atmosphere of pride in the community by publicizing the
Holland-Springfield area. It does this through sponsorship of special
events and activities throughout the year.
Since it was established, the Holland-Springfield Chamber of Commerce
has quickly grown and is comprised of a diverse mix of members
representing many different industries.
Benefits of Chamber membership are many. The Chamber offers significant
cost savings programs such as group health insurance, a long distance
carrier discount program, and a workers' compensation group rating plan
to Chamber members.
Additionally, the Chamber provides professional and personal development
through monthly programs where members are educated on important topics
of local business interest. Members are continually updated on areas of
economic development activity and are also kept abreast of legislative
issues that may affect their business. In addition to receiving the
Chamber's endorsement of their product and/or services, members are able
to increase their business exposure through networking opportunities at
business meetings and special events.
By promoting its members and providing them with worthwhile programs and
services, the Chamber assists them in being successful in their business
endeavors, thereby strengthening the community as a whole.
