As we move into the second full week of January, our Brunsco business community continues to start the year strong. This week brings another opportunity to come together, support local, and celebrate the growth happening across Brunswick County.

We invite you to join us on Tuesday, January 13 at 4:00 PM for the Riccobene Dentistry Ribbon Cutting at 9869 Ocean Hwy W, Suite 1 & 2 in Carolina Shores. Ribbon cuttings are a great way to show support for our members, make connections, and welcome new businesses into our Chamber family.

Thank you for continuing to show up, stay engaged, and support the businesses that make our community thrive. We look forward to seeing you out this week and throughout the month ahead.

Weโ€™d also love to hear directly from you. We invite our members to submit a short video sharing why you love being part of the Brunswick County Chamber and what your membership has meant to your business. These videos will be featured in upcoming Chamber communications as we continue telling the story of our incredible community.

To participate, simply email your video to communications@brunswickcountychamber.org

Chamber Member Benefit Highlight

Providing competitive benefits just got easier for local businesses. The NC Chamber Health Plan gives Chamber members access to an affordable healthcare option designed specifically for small and mid-sized employers.

This plan is available to businesses with 2 to 50 employees and is administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina. It is a practical option for owners looking to support their teams while managing costs.
