Wellington Chamber of Commerce Information

The Wellington Chamber of Commerce is proud to be working with and supporting business in Wellington. The Chamber has been in the business of encouraging regional development and representing the region's businesses since 1856. In its early years it was instrumental in shaping the region's infrastructure. Today our members, who range from major corporations to sole traders, continue to benefit from the broad pro-business policy platform promoted by the chamber and the close personal networks and contacts membership brings. As well as being an accredited chamber of commerce and a founding member of the New Zealand Chambers of Commerce (Inc), our business services brand, Business Central is one of four regional associations that make up BusinessNZ. The Wellington Chamber of Commerce is responsible for providing a range of services for Wellington members. These range from lobbying and advocacy work on Wellington issues through to running events and training courses in Wellington. We issue chamber of commerce trade documentation such as Carnets and Certificates of Origin and provide trade facilitation services through the global chamber network. We also offer a full range of advisory services on employment law, occupational health and safety and other elements of human resource management. The membership of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce stands at around 1,500 - by far the biggest business network in town.
