Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce

What Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce does

Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce is a private non-profit chamber of commerce founded in 1966 and headquartered at 318 East Bayou Road in Thibodaux, Louisiana. It serves local businesses, licensed professionals, non-profits, and visitors across Thibodaux and Lafourche Parish through tiered membership programs, a searchable member directory, networking and educational events, advocacy, and workforce development initiatives in partnership with the Lafourche Parish School District.

The chamber's core service stack includes a tiered annual membership structure priced from $110 (individuals) to $955 (251+ employee businesses), with separate categories for licensed professionals, financial institutions, hotels, and non-profits; a searchable online business directory; and an events calendar with self-serve registration. It operates two signature programs — the Thibodeauxville Fall Festival (annual since 1992, now drawing 15,000+ visitors and 180 vendors) and GROW, a women's conference rebranded around "Generating Real Opportunities for Women." A weekly Laurel Valley Farmer's Market and Workforce Wednesday programming round out the offering. The technology backbone is ChamberMaster (powered by GrowthZone) for membership, directory, and website operations, with Google Maps API used for member-location display. An affiliated Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce Foundation, established in 2001 as a 501(c)(3), supports community and economic development.

The revenue model combines recurring annual membership dues with event-based income: Business at Breakfast ($20 member / $30 non-member), Lunch & Learn ($25 including lunch), and Thibodeauxville Fall Festival vendor and sponsorship fees. Distribution is direct and self-serve through the chamber office and thibodauxchamber.com, supplemented by email newsletter, Facebook pages (chamber, Thibodeauxville, GROW), and the printed Chamber Insight publication. The chamber is governed by a Board of Directors with committees and a small staff of 1-10, and is currently operating with no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed funding rounds.
