August 1, 2023

Encouraging Business and Community Success East of the Cooper

The Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce (MPCC) has found a place to call home at 534 Johnnie Dodds Blvd.

With a 2,000 square-foot facility and partnership with Pinnacle Financial Partners, the location is designed to provide space for growing staff and have a physical presence in the community. The space will be used to host meetings with members, board meetings, committee meetings, and some of their events such as new member coffees. Once there are signage and staff in place, walk-ins from the community will be welcome to visit and learn more about MPCC.

“The Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce has been aspiring to have a physical location in Mount Pleasant for years. It is very exciting that we were able to partner with Pinnacle Bank on a lease to make this a reality. This is crucial as part of our plan to continue to grow and support the businesses and community East of the Cooper,” said MPCC President Jennifer Maxwell.

MPCC’s mission is to encourage business and community success East of the Cooper.

“The people of the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce are incredible partners to the entire business community and share Pinnacle’s passion for improving the quality of life for everyone who lives and works here. That made this a very easy decision,” declared Karina Garrison, office leader at Pinnacle Financial Partners and MPCC Secretary. “The Chamber is a major driver of our community’s economic wins and has proven itself to be committed to business and community success East of the Cooper. We just feel fortunate to get to play a part in their future.”

A grand opening and ribbon cutting with the Town of Mount Pleasant will be held later. For more information about MPCC, to become a member, to register for an event, or to learn more about sponsorship, please email Director Rebecca Imholz at rebecca@mountpleasantchamber.org.
