Chamber Welcome

Welcome to Kernersville where there is something for everyone, whether you are here to live, visit, work or play.

We are located in the center of the Triad area (Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem), making Kernersville a great place to live whether you are just getting started or looking for a place to retire. Kernersville is also a great place to begin or relocate a business.

Kernersville’s industrial parks, retail space and office facilities available make conducting business convenient. If you are looking for a place to live, beautiful housing developments, apartments and retirement communities can be found in a variety of price ranges. If you are looking for something to do, we have wonderful parks and recreation facilities, great stores for shopping, beautiful golf courses to play, clean lakes for boating and fishing, a variety of restaurants for dining and special events going on throughout the year within our community. And, if you want a quick getaway, we’re just a couple of hours from the mountains or just a few hours from the North Carolina beaches.

A quick glance at Kernersville shows that growth and improvement keep our town spectacular. The Kernersville downtown recently received a facelift. The former Hooker Furniture factory building is being revitalized to become a mixed-use residential, retail and office center. The air cargo hub for FedEx will open in September 2009 at Piedmont Triad International Airport. A recent groundbreaking for the FedEx Ground service facility puts this bustling business in the town’s corporate limits. Kernersville Medical Center, a Forsyth Hospital facility, has been approved for a 50-bed facility and is under construction, with a 2010 opening planned. This is in addition to the Kernersville Moses Cone MedCenter and High Point Regional Health Systems specialty offices that are already open in the community. Only minutes away from Kernersville, the new stadium for the Winston-Salem Dash minor league baseball team is under construction and scheduled to soon.

Even with all of this going on in and around Kernersville, we still have the best of both worlds. We are experiencing a wonderful growth rate because of the convenience of our location, but we are still able to maintain our sense of a small town community. Some call Kernersville the “Heart of the Triad,” but Kernersville is certainly a community with a lot of heart.

The Kernersville Chamber of Commerce operates in partnership with local, county and state governments to promote and enhance the quality of life and business in our area. We support the interests of our members and business to keep Kernersville growing and prospering so that we will remain the type of place that will attract and retain people looking to make Kernersville their home. We are a voluntary organization working with private and public sectors to reach consensus plans and solutions that improve our community for all who choose to live, work and play here.

If we can be of help to you in any way, then please call us at 336-993-4521 or stop by our offices at 136 E. Mountain St., Kernersville, NC 27284.
