Chamber of Commerce growing under Rodriguez

When Lidia Rodriguez was appointed Martin County Chamber of Commerce Director in August, she knew she wanted to add new services for members while broadening the chamber’s community outreach. Rodriguez was previously the area manager for a national communications company overseeing 10 locations and knows the importance of customer service. “My plan is to grow the chamber and getting the chamber more involved with the community.
