Our Mission
What We Believe
The Oxford Area Chamber of Commerce is led by a volunteer board of directors, which formulates policies and sets goals for the organization by promoting the mission of enriching Oxford and its surrounding community’s livability by advancing its economic vitality. The president is responsible for the management and operation of the Chamber organization and its staff. The board of directors develops and directs a program of work giving the businesses and the community the greatest opportunity for growth and prosperity.
