Community First. Business Forward.

Who We Are

The Valley Station Chamber of Commerce was founded in 2024 to support, promote, and grow local businesses while strengthening the community we serve. We’re built by business owners, for business owners, with a focus on connection, visibility, and real opportunity for everyone in Southwest Louisville’s Valley Station neighborhood and the surrounding Southend area.

We bring together entrepreneurs, professionals, nonprofits, and community partners who believe a strong local economy starts with collaboration. Membership isn’t limited to those who live or work within Valley Station itself — if you believe in supporting local business and want to help this community grow, there’s a place for you here.

To build a thriving, connected local business community that grows together and gives back.

To support, connect, and promote local businesses while strengthening our community.

How We Operate

The Chamber holds regular events and networking opportunities throughout the year, with our monthly membership meeting on the second Tuesday of every month. Our membership year runs July 1 through June 30, with annual dues of $200 per business, organization, or individual member. We’re a nonprofit organization governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and run entirely on the energy of our member businesses.
