We Are Your Voice
Government decisions can significantly impact your ability to do business. It's challenging to stay on top of constantly changing policies and next to impossible to influence government decisions on your own.
That's where we come in. The Chamber makes certain that our members stay informed on government action that could affect their businesses. We also make sure that government officials know how proposed or existing policies could impact businesses in Mid Canterbury.
As a founding member of BusinessNZ, the largest business advocacy network in the country, we work with network organisations across Otago, Wellington and Auckland to push for action that removes the red tape, reduces compliance and unnecessary burdens and provides an environment for businesses to grow and innovate.
