The Ghana National Chamber of Commerce was established on November 8, 1961 under an Act of Parliament (Executive Instrument No. 196) following the amalgamation of the then existing Chambers of Commerce which were formed on racial basis. The Executive instrument was amended by Lesgislative Instrument No. 611 of 1968 to streamline some of the internal structures of the Chamber.
The Chamber is charged with the following functions:
- Promotion and protection of trade, commerce, industry and manufactures of Ghana.
- The collection and circulation of statistics relating to trade, commerce, industry and manufactures.
- The provision of facilities for the communication and interchange of views between members of the Chamber on the one hand and departments of Government, public institutions and other Association on the other hand on matters directly or indirectly affecting the interests.
Formed originally to provide general services to members, the Chamber now actually promotes trade and gives valuable assistance in bringing together manufacturers, buyers and sellers, thus performing an essential part of the marketing function. |
