Niagara’s economy is facing many challenges.  Businesses in Niagara are looking for leadership to address the real issues that are facing businesses and communities in Niagara.   After extensive discussion and research the decision was made by a group of business people to create the Greater Niagara Chamber of Commerce. The goal is that this organization can bring together business leaders who are ready to help position Niagara’s economy for the 21st Century.

Members of the Greater Niagara Chamber of Commerce (GNCC) steering committee have established a set of by-laws, core values, mission, vision and goals as a means to set in motion the creation of a powerful new business organization in Niagara.
