A Ribbon Cutting Ceremony is an important part of your overall marketing and advertising plan and is a great way to kick-off a grand opening of a business. It offers an opportunity to meet key leaders in the community and get acquainted with your neighbors and Chamber members.

The Independence Chamber will conduct the ceremony, complete with a giant pair of scissors (they really do cut). We will also take photos of the event which will be published in the following months newsletter.

Scheduling with the Chamber should take place a minimum of two weeks prior to the event to allow for proper planning. Snacks and beverages are usually served, but it is your decision. Your plan can be as simple or elaborate as you like, whatever fits your budget.

Ribbon cuttings are held Wednesdays and Thursdays between the times of 10am – 4pm and Fridays between the times of 9am – 12pm.

Please note: The Chamber cannot guarantee attendance at your event. From our experience, events held during standard business hours tend to have the best turn out.  We are not able to facilitate ribbon cuttings on the same day/time as a scheduled Chamber event.
