"Entrepreneur Friendly" Community

Thomasville-Thomas County has an environment that is welcoming to small business and entrepreneurs. Ninety-one percent of Thomas County's over 2000 companies are small businesses with fewer than 20 employees. The economic activity created by these businesses and entrepreneurs brings prosperity and opportunity to our community. The chamber is very committed to help foster this growth.
