Industry. Growth. Innovation. Dalton’s story has remained tied to these three strings of fate since its founding in 1847. Entrepreneurial grit and courage have shaped our town over the last century and a half, and that same spirit continues today.

The Greater Dalton Chamber of Commerce celebrates our industry community, from the bedspread innovation of Catherine Whitener to the birth of wall-to-wall carpet manufacturing in the 1960s. We have moved through various stages of growth in our town, supporting large-scale industry with hard-surface and carpet flooring, and now solar panels, vehicle parts, packaging, and more. The entrepreneurial spirit continues amongst small businesses and large industry alike, raising the economic tide of our town and creating opportunities for our region.

The Greater Dalton Chamber and partners the Joint Development Authority and Believe Greater Dalton have the best job in the world: a front row seat to our town’s growth. We help match innovation with resources, connect fellow entrepreneurs, and direct advocacy efforts with our business-friendly agenda.
