Reasons to Join the JCC
The Jamaica Chamber of Commerce exists to amplify the voice of the business community in Jamaica.
We play a significant advocacy role, lobbying for the creation of an environment in which businesses thrive.
Our associations with the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and the Caribbean Chamber of Commerce (CARICHAM) give us access to regional and international best practices. Businesses must align themselves with a strong voice to represent them. Anyone seeking to do business in Jamaica is encouraged to join the JCC.
