Mendota Chamber of Commerce For more than 75 years, the Mendota Chamber of Commerce has served to support local businesses and the community through programming, education and special events. Our chamber members represent industry, retail, service, professionals and agriculture. Our chamber members represent businesses big and small. We work in partnership with local tourism and government to promote economic growth and the community’s quality of life. We are already at work planning the 2022 Sweet Corn Festival and are excited to celebrate its 75th anniversary. The Sweet Corn Festival is one of the largest harvest festivals in the Midwest bringing more than 60,000 visitors
to the area each year. Our board members and chamber ambassadors share their time to welcome new businesses and support the Mendota area community.
