What is a Chamber of Commerce?

Chambers of Commerce are responsible for improving the local business environment and strengthening communities through advocacy, networking, and campaigning. In addition, they create an easy line of communication for business owners to connect with governing bodies.

In Shropshire the Chamber is dedicated to improving the success of our diverse business types and to help them succeed in day to day trade and to overcome the many challenges that all businesses face. 

We are one of 53 accredited Chambers in the UK who are trusted champions of businesses, places, and global trade, representing thousands of businesses.

How long has the Shropshire Chamber of Commerce been running?

In its current form the Chamber began trading in September 1990. However local business support was provided much earlier than that in different guises.

What is a Patron?

A Patron is usually a well known and/or successful local business that wants to 'give back' to the community that they trade within. We are proud to have some of the Counties most prestigious businesses supporting us as Patrons.

Effectively Chamber Patronage is an exclusive partnership between Shropshire Chamber of Commerce and some of our best local businesses, both of whom care passionately about the success of the local business community.

What do the Board do?

The Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors have oversight over all the financial, trading and regulatory operations of the Chamber. They have legal responsibility for the correct running of all operations and are involved in agreeing strategy for the Chamber and its membership.
