Since it was established approximately 163 years ago, the Durban Chamber of Commerce and Industry has been an advocate on issues that impact Durban’s economic growth and prosperity, advocating on behalf of and representing the eThekwini business community. The Durban Chamber aims to be recognised as a worldclass business chamber and a united voice of business in the eThekwini Municipal area and beyond. Our dynamic multicultural organisation works to enhance a conducive business environment and provide services to all business in the region. The Durban Chamber works with members, the business community and all levels of government to achieve the vision to be “In Business for a Better World”.

On behalf of the Durban Chamber, I thank all stakeholders who include our members, sponsors, partners
and incredible Durban Chamber staff. As the Durban Chamber marks its historic 163rd milestone, it can boast having achieved many strategic objectives over the past year.

As the Durban Chamber operational team, we appreciate the Durban Chamber Board and Council whose leadership and support has ensured we stay the course in achieving our strategic operational objectives through sharing their time and practical expertise with our Durban Chamber members. We look forward to being of service to our diverse membership, made up of different industry sectors within Durban and the greater KwaZulu-Natal.
