Axminster’s businesses are at the heart of a town with a proud heritage, strong sense of community and a determination to become stronger for the future.
The Axminster Chamber of Commerce is the body that bonds commerce, industry and retailers in a town that has a backbone built on independent businesses.
As part of the re-launch of the Chamber we produce a newsletter to summarise our objectives, list our committee and invite your ideas. Please find our newsletters here:
Please sign up to become a member of the Chamber and help us to play our part in Axminster’s revival. Recognising that many businesses are struggling right now, we have decided to waive membership fees for the coming year. You will, therefore, have plenty of time to judge whether what we are aiming to do is working before making any financial commitment.
Signing up means that you will receive newsletters and other communications, and be able to take a free page to promote your business on axminsterbusinessguide.co.uk. Your details will not be used for any other purposes and you can unsubscribe at any time.
