Navarre Chamber Kicks Off 2024 with Energetic Commerce & Coffee Event, Sponsored by Centennial Bank

Navarre, FL – The Navarre Chamber started the year strong with a dynamic January Commerce & Coffee event, proudly sponsored by Centennial Bank. Attendees engaged in energetic networking, exciting door prize giveaways, and a special treat from Centennial Bank—custom red solo cups featuring the Navarre Centennial logo, a perfect way to kick off Navarre’s 100th Anniversary celebration!

The event was a prime opportunity for local business leaders, entrepreneurs, and community members to connect, exchange ideas, and explore new partnerships. Several Santa Rosa County Commissioners and School Board Members were in attendance, along with candidates running for U.S. Representative District 1, including Florida’s Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis.

One of the event’s highlights was the Navarre Chamber’s unveiling of its new Strategic Plan, which focuses on five key pillars:

• Business Development and Outreach
• Membership Experience and Retention
• Economic and Community Development, Progress, and Public Sector
• Organizational Excellence and Optimization
• Empowering Workforce and Leadership Development

Additionally, the Chamber launched its Inaugural Navarre Chamber Committee Roundup, encouraging members to sign up for committees, explore sponsorship opportunities for 2025, and get more involved in shaping the future of Navarre’s business community.

“Commerce & Coffee is more than just networking—it’s about building meaningful connections and strengthening our local business community,” said Chanda Ryan, President/CEO of the Navarre Chamber. “We are grateful to Centennial Bank for their generous sponsorship and to everyone who participated in making this event a success.”

The Navarre Chamber invites the community to stay engaged and take advantage of upcoming events and opportunities to connect with local businesses.
