WHITTIER BUSINESS FOCUS
WWW.WHITTIERCHAMBER.COM
NETWORKING QUOTE Merrill Gardens at Chateau Whittier has been a proud Tom Rios, member of the Whittier Chamber since Merrill Gardens 1995. We have been the recipients of a at great support network provided not only Chateau Whittier by the Chamber’s great staff, members of the Board and Chamber ambassadors, but members of the community as well. Thanks to the Chamber’s support, Merrill Gardens has become a premier retirement community in Whittier, currently at 100% capacity. We attribute part of our success to the continuous support, marketing and sponsorship tools available, e.g. Business Focus, hosting the Wake Up Whittier networking event, Business Directory, etc. Merrill Gardens proudly supports the Whittier Chamber of Commerce; they are part of the reason that Whittier received the Most Business Friendly City award this past year, presented by the Los Angeles County Development Corporation. I encourage any business that is not currently a member of the Whittier Chamber to join and take advantage of all the tools available to help your business grow.
President’s Message Continued from page 2 It’s safe to say that the Whittier Chamber has all of the resources you need to reach your goals this year, whether they are business or personal.
