WELCOME
The Fuquay-Varina Chamber of Commerce welcomes you to our fast-growing, business-friendly community that invites newcomers yet preserves its safe, relaxed, small town appeal. Whether you are a resident, a business owner, or just interested in our area, we encourage you to explore this site to find out more about the unique opportunities available through the Fuquay-Varina Chamber of Commerce.
We have two thriving historic downtowns, minutes apart. This allows access to multiple services and products in two distinct shopping environments while maintaining a sense of history dating back over 200 years.
We also anticipate high residential and business growth in our area over the next 5-10 years as a result of 1) the expansion of Fort Bragg, 2) a planned expansion of the Route 401 corridor from Fayetteville to Raleigh, 3) the completion of I-540, 4) the Veridea development project in Apex that will create 30,000 new jobs, and 5) the completion of the Novartis pharmaceutical plant in Holly Springs, which plans to start production of flu vaccines in 2011. For more information about these new opportunities and how they will impact our town, check out The Perfect Storm, by Art Sanders.
Life in Fuquay-Varina offers the advantage of having what you need in close proximity while providing small town charm and an affordable living environment. Family is highly valued, as are neighbors and the serenity of our location. Our forward-looking town and business leaders will continue to plan for growth opportunities for Fuquay-Varina, but the most important aspect of living and working in Fuquay-Varina will always be the charm, warmth, and character of the people who live here.

PWLA Awards Scholarships
On July 21, 2010, the Chamber of Commerce Professional Women's Leadership Association honored three graduating students with scholarships at the quarterly luncheon held at Bentwinds Country Club. Shown from left are M'Sheila Salvador, Jocelyn Keen and Shannon Kaminski, the 2010 recipients of the PWLA scholarship. We are very proud of these future scholars and congratulate them with best wishes.

Each of these young women received a one thousand dollar scholarship. PWLA members meet every quarter at the Bentwinds Country Club for a luncheon meeting.
