Greenville and Pitt County make up one of the fastest growing areas in the state and the Greenville-Pitt County Chamber of Commerce has been a major player in bringing new business and development into the county. The Chamber plays a vital role as a uniting force between business and citizens to ensure continued progress.
 
The Chamber is a volunteer organization of business, professional, industrial, and community leaders working together to create and maintain an economically strong county. Its objectives are designed to advance the development of the community, to ensure effective government, to maintain a favorable climate for sound economic growth, and to improve the overall quality of life for Pitt County's citizens.

The countywide Chamber currently has more than 800 members and is managed by a member-elected Board of Directors. A professional staff working closely with the Chamber's various committees handles the Chamber's day-to-day operations. Ayden, Grifton, and Farmville affiliates, though an integral part of the Greenville-Pitt County Chamber, are independent and financially self-supporting organizations with their own members. Revenue raised from membership investments goes back into the Chamber to support its personnel expenses, general operating costs, and programs.

Located in the historic Fleming House on Greene Street in downtown Greenville, the Greenville-Pitt County Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to the continued growth and prosperity of Pitt County. The Chamber is equally committed to maintaining the natural resources and quality of life that make the area a garden spot and desirable place to live and work.
