About Us


Our Mission

The Venango Area Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to building, serving, and promoting business growth for our members and Venango Area Business.

The Chamber of Commerce has set a strategic action plan that incorporates the following components:

  1. The One County Chamber – The Venango Area Chamber of Commerce believes that the business community may be better served by a county-wide chamber and to that end will remain open to all consideration of collaboration with other local chambers.
  2. Membership Growth – The Venango Area Chamber of Commerce will set and achieve established goals for member growth and retention
  3. Business & Economic Development – The Venango Area Chamber of Commerce will continue to promote growth within the current business community by being the agent for business success via referral to supportive agencies and pursing financial opportunities to aid new business growth.

The Chamber is located on State Route 8, Oil City, PA in the historic Weaver Buick Garage – the world’s oldest Buick dealership.

Chamber Committees

The Venango Area Chamber of Commerce has a number of committees to address Chamber issues. These committees provide a round-table forum for members to collaborate on significant business concerns, and play a role in the decision-making of our organization. Committee members are getting the most out of their chamber membership, while having fun and building a network of key business acquaintances.

Committee meetings are open to all chamber members. Planned meeting dates are posted on the chamber calendar.
