Chairman's Message

 

I remember 25 years ago, seven of us founding members took the initial steps towards the formation of this chamber.  We had the motivation, the determination, the will to succeed, but were unsure about how successful the idea would be. My dear members, not only did the idea work, but today we are a thriving community, with 718 members having varied business interests and successful in their own ways. It is truly down to the efforts taken by the past chairmen, especially to the vision of our founding chairman, Mr. Vincent Mathias.

During my tenure, I would like to focus on 3 key aspects that the chamber should work upon for the next three years.

  1. Greater cooperation between the members. Many times, we have noticed that our members may have interests in similar and allied industries, or may be solution providers to many of our needs.

  2. I want to encourage greater interaction between our members. The main reason is to bind the businesses run by our own Christian community. Look for Solutions and services within the Chamber.

  3. Up scaling and growing our businesses. We have been traditionally involved in small scale industries, so let us work to take it to the next level.
