We serve the businesses of Manheim Borough, Penn Township and Rapho Township by providing educational programs, networking events, marketing opportunities and community experiences.

We advocate on behalf of our members by promoting a pro-business climate and adopting positions to influence public policy. Please consider joining our membership as either a business or individual professional and become part of our outstanding group of volunteers dedicated to making Manheim a great place in which to work, live and prosper.
