Vermont Chamber of Commerce

Vermont Hospitality Council

The VHC works with statewide lodging, B&Bs, restaurants, attractions and recreation industries that are critical for the well-being of our state's economy. The VHC also manages the Vermont Attractions Association and partners with several agencies within the State of Vermont to promote our state includig the Department of Tourism and Marketing.

Each restaurant that is a Vermont Chamber member will automatically become a member of the National Restaurant Association. Hotels that are Vermont Chamber members will be able to join the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AH&LA) at an additional fee.
