These 10, along with all other top 100 Chandler employers, were recognized in a printed book distributed at the event. Employee count and business contact information are found within.

“All year long, the Chandler Chamber has celebrated the grand openings of the newest Chandler 100 businesses, including Trader Joe’s, Saras Micro Devices, Andretti Indoor Karting & Games, and Penn Foster. A big thanks to City of Chandler’s Economic Development team for helping attract these industry leaders to the East Valley,” said Terri Kimble, President & CEO of the Chandler Chamber of Commerce.

“But what makes our Chandler 100 event so inspiring is its indelible sense of community. It’s not just the biggest employers in the limelight, but local business owners and burgeoning startups who come together to celebrate each other and to discover novel ways to collaborate.”

Chandler 100 is an annual event hosted by the Chandler Chamber of Commerce as a way of recognizing the contributions made by the City’s top employers to the local business community.

Far from an ordinary award ceremony, however, the November 21 gala featured aerialist performers, a smorgasbord of Chandler’s finest restaurants, and a curated selection of Arizona wine.

“Chandler has been ranked one of the best places in the entire United States to live, work, and play. There’s a reason for that. 100 reasons, which is what Chandler 100 is all about,” said Robert Sinkule, 2024 Board Chair of the Chandler Chamber of Commerce. “On behalf of the Chandler Chamber Board of Directors, I want to thank each business for being an integral part of our city. Chandler’s attracted some serious companies, made possible by a strong local economy built by small businesses and entrepreneurs.”

The Chandler 100 book is available to read on ChandlerChamber.com. Physical copies can be picked up for free at the Chandler Chamber office (101 W Commonwealth Ave) or at select Chandler Chamber events, while supplies last.
