Derry's Chamber of Commerce

The Chamber of Commerce in Derry is widely recognised as the leading voice of business in the North West.  It is one of the leading Chambers on the Island of Ireland and the 2nd largest in Northern Ireland.  The Chamber is the only business representation organisation in the NW of Ireland that is locally based, locally managed, with local focus but national influence.  Our members benefit from our strong local knowledge and influence which stems from our base within the region.

However the focus is not solely local.  In representing our members interests, lobbying and influencing activities centre on many policy and legislative issues that require attention at a national level.

Currently led by President, Mr Jim Sammon, and a dynamic Chief Executive, Janice Tracey, the Chamber's Vision is to be the Heartbeat of a confident, competitive and innovative region.  The mission of the Chamber is to represent members best interests, however that does not mean that this Chamber is member centric.  Members are are at the heart of our activity but much of the focus of the work of the Chamber is in the realisation of the region achieving its full economic potential.

The two main arms of our business are networking and lobbying and the Chamber's Strategy for 2010 and beyond is currently being developed to specify our emerging areas of focus. 

The Chamber is committed to the regeneration of the city and region and is currently championing the development of a Regeneration Plan for the city.  Have your say.
