We want your input. The Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce (CFCOC) in partnership with Barker Strategy is conducting a survey to gauge the economic climate and outlook of area businesses. We'd like to get your thoughts on your company's outlook and your view of our local economy and region as a place to start and grow a business.

The results will be shared with our members at our Annual Report.
