2020 Chairman’s Message
Welcome to the Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce! Located approximately 25 miles north of Seattle and Bellevue, and about 6 miles southwest of Everett, Mukilteo transports one to another world of peace and tranquility.
“Mukilteo” is a Native American word meaning “happy camping grounds.” Accordingly, our city is a jewel nestled along the northern Puget Sound, and is the perfect place for a day visit, weekend or beyond. The breathtaking views of both the Canadian Cascades and the Olympic Mountains, contribute to Mukilteo’s being ranked in Money Magazine’s top 10 small towns to live in.
Our Mission is simple:
The Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce is an organization dedicated to promoting business development and economic growth in the greater Mukilteo area.
Our Vision Statement is clear:
To build and support a thriving business community.
We at the Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce put our Mission and Vision statements into action throughout the year with programs such as: Business After Hours, Breakfast with the Chamber, Lunch & Learn, and networking groups led by knowledgeable members with the passion to see others succeed. Mukilteo is the destination for business, from your corner store to multinational powerhouses.
Global companies such as Boeing and Electro Impact have long been powerful movers whose reach has had an impact on the world stage, yet they have been active in our community and have been wonderful partners with other Mukilteo businesses.
U.S. Presidents and titans of industry have long had special access to Paine Field’s airfield. Now, with the construction of a new world-class commercial airport built by Airports by Propeller, others will have an opportunity to arrive and depart from here directly, thanks to Alaska and United Airlines.
Our tourism industry, led by our hotels and bed & breakfast owners, provides refreshing accommodations and a variety of entertainment to weekend adventurers. Whether they’re traveling through by two-seater or two wheels, extending their stay or traveling north to Canada or south along the Pacific Coast, everyone is sure to enjoy their stay in Mukilteo.
Mukilteo offers museums that chronicle the past, aviation that can take you above the horizon, ferries across the sound, hiking alongside the Japanese Gulch, scenic golf at the award winning Harbour Pointe Golf Club, and beyond. You can easily enjoy our beaches, scuba diving, whale watching, wine tastings, bistros and more!
We love having Mukilteo as our home. It is where we live, where we worship, and where we raise our families. It is where we do business the way you know it should be done, face-to-face, with a smile and a handshake, knowing that you are making a difference in your community, and in the lives of others.
As a resident and a business owner, it is my honor to serve our community and our guests as Chair of the Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce for 2020. I do not serve alone. I am proud to serve alongside a wonderful and talented board, and terrific members who give selflessly and share their talents generously.
If you are considering joining the chamber, or are considering a terrific place to start your business, come join us for an upcoming event. We would love you to become a member of our business community! If you have questions regarding Chamber activities and programs, or simply about our community in general, please call our office at 425-347-1456.
Welcome to the Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce – or as we like to say…Welcome Home!
