Waikato Chamber of Commerce

About Us

The Chamber has a place in the community through its advocacy and its focus on learning and development. However, the Waikato Chamber of Commerce’s place within the New Zealand chamber network is that it is part of the northern region. We belong to a group of chambers – Auckland being the biggest that are in the upper North Island – Hawkes Bay, Taranaki, Tauranga, Rotorua and Taupo. The immediate Waikato Chambers are us, Cambridge, Morrinsville, Te Awamutu and Raglan. These are all part time positions. We also are affiliated to the International Chambers of Commerce (ICC).
