Belize Chamber of Commerce & Industry

Belize Chamber of Commerce & Industry is the largest private sector membership-based organization for Business in Belize. Founded in 1920, the Chamber has been consistently championing the causes of its private sector constituency and considers among its primary objectives the social and economic development of Belize through the development of all sectors of industry, commerce and services. Additionally, since 1997, the Chamber is the only recognized "Employers Organization" in Belize under the International Labour Organization's (ILO) tri-partite social partnership. Currently, the BCCI boasts a fluctuating membership of more than three hundred (300) Belizean businesses from a broad cross-section of the agricultural, productive, service, and industrial sectors.
