Citizens Bank was established at Mukwonago in 1892. The Muskego branch opened in 1995 and is located inside the Pick ‘n Save store on Janesville Road. The branch will continue serving customers at that location until early February 2025 when they move to the beautiful new building just a few blocks down the road.
Please give a brief history of your business.
Our bank was originally known as Citizens Bank of Mukwonago. We are now called Citizens Bank and have expanded to serve nine communities with twelve offices. Although we are decades old, we aren’t set in old ways. In fact, the opposite is true. We are investing in improvement projects to enhance our customers' experiences, update our branches, and upgrade our technology. We constantly review how we do business and search for better ways to do business. That is why we are reinvesting in the Muskego community with a standalone office. We are excited to celebrate the 30th anniversary of our Muskego branch in a new space that allows for collaboration with our neighbors.

The Wellness Company - Melaleuca has been in business since 1985. Beth Schmitt is your local rep, serves as a member of the Chamber’s Board of Directors, and volunteers on the Women’s Business Connections Steering Committee.
I (Beth Schmitt) began shopping at Melaleuca in 2020. I wished to purchase Made in America items as much as possible. A friend introduced me to the store and our family loved it! Not only is everything USA made, but it is also nontoxic. Plus, the company's servant hearted mission aligned with our family values. I began sharing the products with friends and family. That went well, so I began sharing the store with everyone that had a need. This included those searching for wellness on a budget; products that work and are backed by science and inspired by nature; weight management help; the opportunity to leave big business and make extra cash; the possibility of a noble business venture; or, anyone simply wanting to serve others. The variety of wellness solutions is endless!

What do you love about our community and participating in the Muskego Chamber of Commerce?
I (Rob) love the City of Muskego because it is a lake community filled with families and businesses of like-minded people. I love how we come together to support our local school programs, events, and small businesses. We like participating in the annual Jammin’ on Janesville–an event that has grown to 12,000 attendees.
Many of our employees are life-long Muskego residents. Dave Davis is one of those Muskego residents and Rob Schopf lived in Muskego for ten years.
Through the Muskego Chamber of Commerce, I met Joseph Kreuser from CAM, Tech, Inc. This allowed our business to rent his space for winter motorcycle storage. We also use his machining services. The Chamber is a great way to network and meet new people plus we learn about many Muskego businesses during our networking events.
I did not join the Chamber to increase my bottom line. I joined the Chamber to increase my visibility to other business owners and like-minded people. As a Past President of the Chamber’s Board, I was an active participant in its strategic planning and am helping implement its future direction. I am very proud of all the Board members, committee volunteers, and our Ambassadors.

Please give a brief history of your business.
CAM Tech, Inc. was established in 1996. I (Joe) purchased the business in 2020. We are a second-generation family business that relocated to Muskego’s Industrial Park in 2011. We return quality work with on-time delivery.
In what way does your business impact our community?
Since purchasing the company, I have been extremely involved in our local community. CAM Tech sponsors the Muskego Chamber of Commerce, Jammin’ on Janesville, MHS Robotics Club, MHS Golf Team, and various other youth sports teams. We also work closely with Muskego High School’s Connect Academy to employ students as interns and currently rotate two positions every semester.
Tell us unique things about your business, such as awards you've received, special products you offer, or cool employee stories.
We are a niche company involved in many industries. By being small, we can provide fun, prototype work while still being equipped to handle large production runs.
What do you love about our community and participating in the Muskego Chamber of Commerce?
Pride of community. I love how we come together to support our local school athletic programs and small businesses. Jammin’ on Janesville…12,000 attendees…enough said.
Most people hope their sales increase when joining a chamber. I get it and that is always welcome. However, in some industries it isn’t that easy. We have a different philosophy. By being a member of the Muskego Chamber of Commerce and participating on the Board of Directors or in its committees, we find our biggest advantage is individual connections. We learn what others do and apply it to our business. This might be cost savings measures, employment practices, or word of mouth referrals—all things we would miss if not involved with other chamber business members.
