Mission of the Chamber
We will advance economic vitality by providing advocacy, information and services to our members and communities.

Our History
The Pittsburgh Airport Area Chamber can trace its roots back to 1904, when it was founded as the Merchants Protection Association.. Reorganized in 1949 as the Coraopolis Chamber of Commerce, the organization name was changed to Coraopolis Area Chamber of Commerce, then in 1970, to the Airport Area Chamber of Commerce.  The name change reflected the Chamber's growing sphere of influence and its ability to attract businesses, professionals and civic-minded individuals from Coraopolis  Borough and Crescent, Findlay, Moon, Neville, North Fayette and Robinson townships and other outlying communities to join its ranks.

Service / Market Area
Strategically located, the Pittsburgh Airport Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to be the voice of over 1,000 businesses in the airport area corridor communities surrounding the Greater Pittsburgh International Airport. The Chamber serves businesses in the airport area beginning at the city line in Green Tree, and extending into communities located in Beaver County close to the airport.  A total of 31 communities are served by the Pittsburgh Airport Area Chamber of Commerce.
