Burlington County Chamber Of Commerce

What Burlington County Chamber Of Commerce does

The Burlington County Regional Chamber of Commerce (BCRCC) is a private, nonprofit regional chamber of commerce headquartered in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, founded in 1976 and currently led by President/CEO Kristi Howell. It serves member businesses across Burlington County and the broader South Jersey region, spanning retail, professional services, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and community organizations. The Chamber's core function is to facilitate business-to-business networking, professional development, legislative advocacy, and community engagement for local SMBs and mid-size enterprises.

The Chamber delivers value through a portfolio of programs including recurring Member Connect networking events (morning and evening formats), signature annual events such as the Golf Invitational, Voice of Business Awards, and Cornhole Tournament & Summer BBQ, and a tiered corporate sponsorship structure (Sustaining, Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze) that embeds sponsors into governance via Board and Vice Chair roles. Its technology footprint is built on third-party SaaS: a branded iOS/Android mobile app deployed via the Glue Up platform, and BCRCC OnDemand, an on-demand webinar library hosted on Vimeo covering topics such as AI in business, fraud prevention, legal concerns, and healthcare insurance. Additional programming includes the Girls Leadership Council, a youth development initiative for teens 14-18, and partnerships with the Burlington County Board of Commissioners, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: annual membership dues (subscription/recurring), event sponsorship packages, and event participation fees. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is available upon inquiry. The organization maintains a lean operating structure of 1-10 employees and is governed by a Board of Directors led by Chairperson Mark Dibble (CEO of YMCA of the Pines). It has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed external investment; it is member-funded and operates independently as a 501(c)-style nonprofit.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• U.S. Chamber of Commerce: National federation that BCRCC partners with for federal advocacy. Provides a comparable membership-and-advocacy framework at national scale and sets standards/tooling that local chambers like BCRCC adopt.
• New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce: Statewide chamber that BCRCC is formally affiliated with. Operates the same membership and advocacy model but at the state level, providing policy, legislative, and economic development resources that overlay the local chamber network.

Regional players

• Princeton Regional Chamber of Commerce: Regional New Jersey chamber with similar member services, events, and advocacy programming, anchored in the Princeton/Mercer market rather than Burlington County.
• Monmouth County Chamber of Commerce: Jersey Shore-area regional chamber with a comparable mix of networking events, advocacy, and member services for SMBs, but operating in a distinct Central Jersey geography.
• Mercer County Chamber of Commerce: New Jersey regional chamber with a comparable SMB-focused membership, events, and advocacy model, but serving the Trenton/Mercer County market rather than Burlington County directly.

Emerging players

• BNI (Business Network International): Global referral-networking organization offering structured weekly networking groups for SMBs. Competes with chambers for the same SMB time and dues budget via a more disciplined, meeting-driven model.

Direct peers

• Camden County Regional Chamber of Commerce: Adjacent South Jersey regional chamber explicitly named as a BCRCC strategic partner. Operates the same membership/networking/advocacy model for a neighboring county and competes for overlapping SMB members in the Camden-Burlington corridor.
• Chamber of Commerce of Southern New Jersey: Regional chamber consortium covering Southern New Jersey and a BCRCC strategic partner. Highly comparable in mission, structure, and member offerings across a broader but overlapping South Jersey footprint.
• Gloucester County Chamber of Commerce: Direct regional chamber peer, also identified as a BCRCC partner, serving Gloucester County with the same dues, events, and advocacy playbook for local businesses in South Jersey.
• Cherry Hill Chamber of Commerce: Local chamber operating within the same Camden-Burlington South Jersey economic region, competing for the same small and mid-size business members via networking events, advocacy, and sponsorship programs.
