The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of Commerce is the local chamber of commerce for the towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro, and Southern Orange County in North Carolina, United States. The Chamber of Commerce's role has included working with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Athletic Department to promote visitor spending in the downtown area and helping businesses to relocate to Franklin Street and substantially vacant shopping malls, such as Meadowmont on the eastern edge of Chapel Hill.[3][4] Along with UNC's Center for Global Initiatives, School of Social Work, and Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development, and Duke University's Center for International Development, the Chamber of Commerce is part of the Institute for Sustainable Development.[5][6]
