BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY
WELLINGTON OFFERS
attractive opportunities for virtually all types of businesses, says Michela Green, Executive Director, Wellington Chamber of Commerce. “Our Chamber focuses on bringing a competitive advantage to Wellington merchants, and to protect those differences for all residents. In fact, it was a return to the idea that chambers of commerce best serve their communities when they are local and when they do not try to be all things to all people. It was also felt that local chambers must look to the betterment of their communities in all facets of community life and not just the business aspect of the communities. “We at the Chamber are proud to support our members and strengthen our very special unique, diverse and innovative community,” Green adds. Small businesses are finding their way to the Wellington community and discovering that with all the numerous amenities and services available in the area, it is a perfect mix for their new businesses to thrive. With nearly 300 members, the Wellington Chamber offers a year-round program of special events, business growth learning workshops and networking opportunities. Many Wellington companies are leaders in the county’s dynamic aviation, equestrian, life sciences, medical and financial service industries. Other businesses cater to the needs of Wellington’s 65,000-plus residents, including retailers, restaurants and equestrian-based companies. Thanks to Wellington’s central location in the heart of Palm Beach County, area businesses enjoy easy access to South Florida’s major roadways, international airports and seaports. Wellington real estate offers fabulous and diverse inventory choices as well as an A-rated school system, great public and semi-private golf courses and top-of-the-line/cutting-edge health care … all just minutes from downtown West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Palm Beach International Airport and the best beaches in the state!
