"The Fountain Valley Chamber of Commerce provides a critical link for local business success. The Chamber creates a format for business networking and offers business consulting to improve your operation. Additionally, the Chamber is active in the community to help guide the direction of the area in which we work and live."

Seaside Graphics:
"I believe that belonging to the Fountain Valley Chamber of commerce is a wise business decision for several reasons. First is the belief that you should be giving back to the community that you do business in and second is doing business with people you trust. These two things can only be accomplished if you participate which I have done either with Silky Sullivan’s Restaurant and Seaside Graphics & Printing since 1987."

Orange Coast Memorial Hospital:
"The FV Chamber has given me a forum to let the business community members know about Orange Coast Memorial and the services we provide. In addition, it has given me the opportunity to interact with these people and to learn from them what the health needs are of our community. Our chamber membership is a benefit to us as a not-for-profit, community-focused hospital, and to the community as well! "

"Chamber Testimony – Read This First If You Are Unsure About Membership
Joining the Fountain Valley Chamber of Commerce has turned out to be one of the most important things I have done since moving my internal medicine and cosmetic laser practice from Los Angeles five months ago to Fountain Valley, my hometown. Not only is the chamber an important source of new patient referrals for me, it is also a terrific way to be involved in the civic and business life of the city I grew up in.
One of the reasons my wife and I chose to move our company Circlemed® to Fountain Valley was the “neighborliness” of the community. The Chamber members have managed to preserve the intimate feel of the small town while remaining progressive and vibrant in its many activities. Also, the members are very welcoming. It didn’t take me long to get to know all of the members of the Chamber.
I have enjoyed meeting Chamber members so much that I have volunteered to become an Ambassador to the Chamber. The role enables me to welcome new and prospective members and to let them know just how valuable the membership experience is. I encourage you to call me to find out if Fountain Valley Chamber membership is right for your business.

"I joined the FV Chamber of Commerce in January 1980 under my previous business - Mr. Pet Grooming & Supplies. Thanks to the contacts I made through the chamber (and hard work), Mr. Pet became very successful. I sold Mr. Pet in 1990 and made a drastic career change starting RWR Marketing & Graphic Design. Continuing my membership under my new business name, I remained active in the FV Chamber. Because of the contacts and friends I made over the years as Mr. Pet, my new business got off the ground solely through FVCC aquaintences and referrals. Today, 18 years later, RWR Marketing and Graphic Design is a successful business and the remarkable thing is -- I can trace nearly every client (which are now nationwide) back to the FV Chamber of Commerce. The roots of the tree are chamber members and their referrals and their referrals and their referrals have created a large, fruitful tree with many branches which continues to grow today. Thank you FVCC! "
