About the Chamber

"The Kailua Chamber grew from a memory of watching small community business. Trust, friendship, and community were woven into the island way of life. It is an unspoken vibe. We don’t need to look back to find that essence. It has been with us all along."

2016 President John Keene

This association serves to address – and solve – many of the problems facing Windward Oahu.
