History

Rooted in Tradition. Growing Toward the Future.

The Tinley Park Chamber of Commerce has proudly served the local business community since its official inception on April 25, 1955. What began as a small group of dedicated business owners coming together to support one another has grown into one of the most active and respected chambers in the region.

For nearly 70 years, we’ve remained committed to our founding purpose: to connect businesses, support economic growth, and enhance the overall vitality of Tinley Park.

Our mission has always been to foster progress and collaboration by serving as a resource and advocate for the business community, supporting economic development, and promoting Tinley Park as a vibrant place to live, work, and play.

From humble beginnings, the Tinley Park Chamber has evolved alongside our community. Today, we proudly represent over 400 member businesses and organizations ranging from small, family-owned shops to major corporations, schools, and nonprofits.

Through the decades, we’ve continued to adapt to meet the needs of our members, offering resources, connections, and advocacy that help businesses thrive while keeping community at the heart of everything we do.

Our history is defined not only by dates and milestones, but by the relationships we’ve built, the events we’ve hosted, and the countless businesses we’ve helped grow. As Tinley Park continues to develop and change, the Chamber remains a constant force rooted in tradition and ready for the future.

Thank you to all who have helped shape our legacy. We look forward to many more decades of partnership, progress, and prosperity.
