Ballymena Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry is delighted to announce the launch of its newly developed website, created in partnership with local website developer and Chamber Member, Gazelle Communications.
Ballymena Area Chamber of Commerce & Industry's new fully responsive website has been designed to provide members, businesses, and the wider local community with a central online hub for everything happening across the Ballymena area and beyond. Whether you are an existing Chamber member, a business owner interested in joining, or simply looking to stay informed about local business news and events, the new website offers a clear, accessible, and user-friendly experience across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
As one of Northern Ireland’s leading Chambers, Ballymena Chamber continues to support, connect, and promote businesses across the region. The new website reflects this ongoing commitment by making it easier than ever for local businesses to engage with Chamber, access key information, and take part in the many opportunities available throughout the year.
Peter Houston, President of Ballymena Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said:
“Ballymena Chamber continues to grow and evolve, and it is important that our digital presence reflects the strength and ambition of our local business community. Our new website provides a much-improved platform for members, businesses, and stakeholders to stay informed, engage with Chamber activity, and access the many opportunities available across the region.”
A One-Stop Online Hub for Local Business
The new Ballymena Chamber website has been developed to act as a one-stop destination for members and business owners across the region. Visitors can now find out more about Chamber membership, keep up to date with local business news, view upcoming events, and connect with other Chamber members through the new online Members Directory.
The website also includes improved functionality to support Chamber’s growing calendar of events and initiatives. Businesses can now apply for membership online, register their interest in participating in the Ballymena Business Excellence Awards, confirm attendance at Chamber networking events, and subscribe to Chamber’s new business newsletters.
Supporting Members and Strengthening Connections
One of the key features of the new website is the Members Directory, which gives businesses greater visibility and makes it easier for members to connect, collaborate, and do business locally.
The directory provides a valuable platform for showcasing the wide range of businesses that make up Ballymena Chamber’s growing membership, from independent retailers and hospitality venues to manufacturers, professional services, consultants, healthcare providers, logistics companies, agri-food businesses, and many more.
By improving access to member information, events, applications, and updates, the new website will help strengthen connections across the local business community and ensure businesses can make the most of their Chamber membership.
Tom Wiggins, Chief Executive of Ballymena Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry, commented:
“Our priority is always to support our members and promote business across Ballymena and the wider area. Our new website will play an important role in helping us communicate more effectively, share news and opportunities, promote events, and make it easier for businesses to connect with Chamber and with each other.”

Ballymena Chamber was pleased to partner with Gazelle Communications, a local website development and digital marketing consultancy, to deliver the new website.

Rodney Kernohan, Director of Gazelle Communications, said:
