Our history

From Cliffside Park to the Gold Coast

The Gold Coast Chamber of Commerce grows directly from the legacy of the Cliffside Park Chamber of Commerce — decades of supporting local merchants, professionals, and families along Anderson Avenue and beyond.

As the Hudson waterfront transformed into one of the most dynamic business corridors in the country, our mission grew with it: to serve the entire Gold Coast as a unified regional voice for business, from the George Washington Bridge to Jersey City.
