History
In 1882, a group of businessmen gathered to discuss the promotion of business development and the interests of the local business community. What began as the Fort Worth Board of Trade then eventually became the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce.
In the early days, efforts included bringing the Texas & Pacific and the Santa Fe railroads to town. In 1896, the Chamber sponsored the first Southwestern Exposition and Fat Stock Show, still one of the city’s biggest attractions.
Over the past century, the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce has had a hand in just about every major business development to occur in the city. From attracting meat packing companies in the early days to persuading TCU to relocate here to organizing trade missions to China and Australia in recent years, the Chamber’s diligent and steadfast mission continues. Known as the city where the west begins, Fort Worth melds its rich western heritage with innovation, technology, modern cultural amenities, and progressive leadership to make it an ideal location to live and work.
