GINCC History
On September 13, 2010, The Greater Ishpeming-Negaunee Area Chamber of Commerce officially opened its doors to the public. However, it was long before this date that the effort to reorganize the Chamber began. Hard working volunteers spent the better part of a year gathering support and preparing for a new Chamber.
When it came time to officially reorganize, it was clear the business community, residents and public officials were ready for a positive organization dedicated to the betterment of Western Marquette County.
GINCC services two cities and nine townships: City of Negaunee, City of Ishpeming, Negaunee Township, Ishpeming Township, Ely Township, Tilden Township, Republic township, Michigamme Township, Champion Township, Richmond Township, and Humboldt Township.
