WELCOME

Welcome to the Lanarkshire Chamber of Commerce website where you can find details of the Chamber and where you can use our business directory to find suppliers and business contacts.

Lanarkshire Chamber of Commerce was formed in 2003 following a merger of more localised Chambers and Business Groups in Clyde Vale, East Kilbride, Hamilton and Clydesdale, Motherwell & District and Cambuslang and Rutherglen. We have developed into the premier independent business support organisation in Lanarkshire, providing a wide range of services specifically designed to help our members grow and prosper whilst continuing to lobby Scottish Enterprise Lanarkshire, North and South Lanarkshire Councils and other public bodies on the issues that impact on local businesses.

BENEFITS FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Membership of Lanarkshire Chamber of Commerce can benefit your business in a number of ways.

- Access to networking opportunities

- Direct access to other business support and advice organisations such as the Business Gateway and Scottish Enterprise Lanarkshire.

- Lobbying local and national government on your behalf.

- Practical advice and help with export matters to Europe and worldwide.

- Access to affinity deals designed to reduce business costs.

MEMBERSHIP

Any business or organisation, large or small, whether based in the area or not, may apply for membership. With annual membership fees from as low as £100 + VAT its an exceptionally cost effective way to meet and make new business contacts and to develop existing business relationships.

CHAMBER PARTNERS

In common with other leading Chambers throughout the UK, we see a demand from the Corporate Sector to be visibly more associated and involved with the Chamber at a local level. Local companies Scottish Auto Trader Rolls Royce plc, University of the West of Scotland, Philips, Action Coach and The Bank of Scotland have all joined the programme and we expect more to follow.

Details about the programme can be obtained from our chief executive - douglas.millar@lanarkshirechamber.org  or by telephoning Douglas on 01698 426882.
