Economic Development

Welcome to the Chamber of Commerce of the Mid-Ohio Valley economic development information web page.

The Chamber represents the interests of all businesses and the community as a whole, and is engaged in economic development every day and in many ways.  From helping existing businesses grow and thrive, to working with small and mid-sized start-ups, to serving as the voice of business in the region, the Chamber is vitally involved in improving the local economy and the overall quality of life in the Mid-Ohio Valley.

The Chamber works closely with Wood County Economic Development Authority, often referring inquiries from companies interested in locating in the area.  And for those wanting to relocate in Downtown Parkersburg, there’s none better to connect with than Downtown PKB.

There is also a close partnership between the Chamber and the Greater Parkersburg Convention and Visitor’s Bureau.  The Chamber staff field dozens of calls each week about local events and attractions.

We realize that in today’s globalized world, you have a choice in where you will locate or relocate your business.   The Mid-Ohio Valley is a great place to live, work and play.

We hope you will give us a look and let us know how we may be of assistance.   We’re open for business!  Oh… and…welcome home!
