Business Impact Survey

The COVID-19 Virus has severely reshaped the Alleghany Highlands business landscape. Things are changing on an hour to hour, day to day basis. To help prepare for a full recovery, The Alleghany Highlands Economic Development Corporation & The Alleghany Highlands Chamber of Commerce & Tourism are partnering to conduct a series of business surveys to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on local businesses & non profits in the Alleghany Highlands. 

We would very much appreciate your response & your responses are absolutely CONFIDENTIAL. Businesses and non profits are invited to take the survey but we ask that each business entity only take the survey once. The results will be given to local and state elected officials so that they can begin to understand top needs within the community. 

Please respond to the survey by Monday, March 30th at Noon. 

You can contact the Alleghany Highlands Chamber of Commerce & Tourism @ 540-962-2178 or by email at info@ahchamber.com. The Alleghany Highlands Economic Development Corporation can be reached at 540-862-0936 or by email at info@ahedc.com
