Economic Development
Economic development is a sustainable increase in living standards that implies increased per capita income, better education and health as well as environmental protection.
One of the Chamber's concerns is economic growth, which is basic to the prosperous existence of the community. For the community to survive and develop, there must be sound economic growth.
Business Retention is a top priority for our Chamber. We know businesses had a choice when deciding to move to the Wainwright area and the Chamber is committed to maintaining the pro-business climate and tremendous growth opportunities that first attracted our businesses.
