Our History

The Bermuda Chamber of Commerce was founded in 1907. Bermudians traveling abroad had recognised the advantages of the Chamber of Commerce and businessmen had seen the operations of the Chamber in North America and the UK. A group of retailers brought the Chamber to the Island as they realized that as a group they would have more voice in the community. The Bermuda Chamber of Commerce grew throughout the first half of the twentieth century to include members in the hospitality field as tourism was growing and fast becoming the Island's premier industry.

The Bermuda Chamber of Commerce is a non profit, apolitical organization whose members share a common goal; to advance the commercial, industrial, civic, trade and general interests of Bermuda and to foster the spirit of free enterprise.
