News about the chamber

People like the annual Business Expo sponsored by the Wake Forest Area Chamber of Commerce, and they like one feature: the free food samples. Those will be provided this year by City Barbecue, Chick-fil-A, East Coast Wings, Moe’s, Sweetheart Treats and The Creative Caribbean Cook and Catering. There will also be giveaways and door prizes, with the grand prize a Traeger Grill Package worth more than $1,000.

The presenting sponsor for this year’s business expo is B&W Hardware, and it will be held from 3 to 7 p.m. at Richland Creek Community Church. More than 1,000 people are expected to attend.

Before the Expo at 12 p.m., the chamber will hold a First Responders Luncheon sponsored by Allstate-Thomas Walters. Only 10 tickets remain available. Tickets are $20 each and may be purchased online. Come show your support for our local first responders, and hear from guest speaker and disabled veteran ambassador Staff Sergeant Timothy Payne.

Following the luncheon, the exhibitor hall doors will open, and visitors will be able to browse 100 booths and attend educational seminars facilitated by Wake Tech.
