FireKing Baking Company, a member since 2019, is an innovator in the baking industry, offering over 300 types of bread baked for food service, retail, and private labeling. Their products also include breads made with fresh herbs, chesses, milk, olives, dried fruit, and olive oil.

Partner Appreciation Month: Rockland Trust Bank

6/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Rockland Trust, a member since 1973, offers a wide range of banking, investment, and insurance services for businesses and individuals. Each relationship matters, no matter large or small, old or new, they build strong relationships with customers and communities they serve.
Success and growth are not singular pursuits that happen because of one action or one person. They require many people working on very different objectives and then brought together. Chris is actually a musician (the flute) but when it comes to community growth he acts like an orchestra conductor -- looking at the whole score but letting others come together.  His leadership on housing as a key to sustainable growth has been the leading action in implementing our comprehensive economic strategy under South Shore 2030.  
​Peter Forman, President & CEO, South Shore Chamber
Chris Oddleifson of Rockland Trust addressing Chamber members in April.  Here is an excerpt of Chris discussing the region as an ecosystem and the important roles housing and the Chamber have in growing it.

I am pleased to announce that the South Shore Chamber has joined the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on a national initiative to help address inequality through economic opportunity. Business leaders and chambers across the country have been discussing how the private sector can contribute to the solution of this issue. The U.S. Chamber initiative is taking a broader look at how private sector leaders can improve economic opportunity for everyone.
