Incorporated in 1931, the Vizagapatam Chamber of Commerce was instituted by a group of businessmen in the city. The chamber’s main objective is to understand the problems of the business community and work out effective solutions in coordination with the state and central government to foster the industrial growth and social wellbeing of Visakhapatnam along with other districts of Andhra Pradesh. During 1931, there were nine committee members. Over the past few decades, the count has increased to 14. The managing committee meets every month to discuss the current trends and promote networking, seminars, international trade fairs, and workshops in the city.
