Call today to get further information! Welcome! A Message from Ed Stolmaker President of the Marana Chamber of Commerce ur great community is always evolving. With new parks, businesses, schools, municipal O services and facilities, Marana remains a town on the move. That’s why those of us at the Chamber of Commerce chose “Marana 2.0” as the theme for this year’s directory. Our shared town has come a long way in the past couple of decades. Back in 2000, we had a little more than 13,000 people living here and were just a small place on the outskirts of, Tucson. Now, we have 45,000 residents and are proving to be the place to do business in Southern Arizona. The proof is everywhere. Large industries have presences here. Small, family- owned businesses make up the majority of our Chamber membership. Many restaurants have entered the Southern Arizona market by establishing locations in Marana the past several years. Much of that success is owed to a great partnership we have with Town of Marana government. Our friends with the Town are constantly working to attract commerce and many of those efforts are performed in concert with the Chamber. Our business walk has given Chamber and Town staff opportunities to meet the people who make our commercial sector thrive. The Chamber’s networking events are well-attended by business owners and Town Council, providing another good opportunity for valuable face-to-face interaction. Ed Stolmaker, IOM President/CEO of the Marana On a personal note, it’s been my pleasure to play a small role in Marana’s Chamber of Commerce success.
