First records for the Chamber of Commerce of Sulphur list Raymond Nelson as President. His term of office was from 1942-1945. From 1945 through 1949 several leaders aided in the organization's growth and development. The Chamber year ran from January 1st through December 31st. In 1949 the Sulphur Chamber of Commerce officially became the West Calcasieu Association of Commerce. In 2013 it renamed the group back to West Calcasieu Chamber of Commerce.

The office was located upstairs in the Foreman Building on West Napoleon Street for several years, later moving into the Brimstone Museum in 1976, located on the grounds of Frasch Park. The Museum (an old railroad car) was moved to Cypress Street in downtown Sulphur and remained a landmark in our city for approximately 15 years. The office was then moved into the office of Tab Finchum, Edward Jones representative located on Maplewood Drive, occupying approximately 700 square feet.

The office was moved once again (May 2011) to the West Cal Business Center, located 500 North Huntington Street. After the Hurricanes in 2020, the building experienced damage and the Chamber office relocated again to 1300 E. Napoleon Street

The Chamber conducts a Monthly Business Luncheon on the 2nd Thursday of each month where the Business of the Month is announced.

The Chamber has several active committees with each having sub committees who stay busy all year.
