About Us
The Chamber of Commerce is a major source of business information in Sierra Leone. The Chamber maintains files covering overseas countries as well as numerous local business and economic data. These will assist in investment decisions, market expansion and decisions on joint venture proposals from overseas.
Moreover, the Chamber has been established as a useful and valuable source of reference upon which the Government depends as a guide in dealing with the Business Community. As the umbrella organization of all commercial activities including Agriculture and industry, our collective business experience is vast and the Chamber's strong relationship with the Government in the promotion of business cannot be over emphasized.
