About

Olathe, Kansas, is a community that is attracting local, regional and national attention. In Olathe you will find a pro-growth business environment, cooperative planning, and a dynamic feeling of community. 

Olathe is the county seat of rapidly-growing, affluent Johnson County. Located 20 miles southwest of Kansas City, Olathe is in the center of a national transportation network. Self-contained and self-sufficient, the city is populated with young, well-educated, high income, and highly motivated families. 

With 150 years of history, Olathe has prospered over the years. Today, it has become one of the Midwest´s dominant business, economic, and cultural centers. This community of over 120,000 energetic citizens is one of the fastest-growing communities in Kansas, offering businesses and residents the best opportunity for success.

 

An outstanding central location, an unparalleled transportation network, a nationally-recognized school system, and one of the best-educated workforces in the nation make Olathe an exciting location for families and businesses. 

If you stop long enough to absorb the incredible energy of Olathe, you´ll discover one of the most dynamic and evolving cities anywhere. Olathe businesses are confident about the city´s robust economy…more so than their counterparts elsewhere in the Kansas City metro area or the nation. 

“Partnerships” is the mantra and method this community uses to pursue its goals. It doesn´t take forever to get things done in Olathe, because business, government, and private citizens work together to make things happen. The Chamber is most often the unifying force that pulls together these community-wide partnerships. 

We invite you to become part of our evolving and very bright future.
