Local Policy Development: Over the past year, the Brandon Chamber has put a renewed focus on policy development and we were pleased to have had two Brandon Chamber supported policies approved atthe Manitoba Chambers AGM earlier this month.

 

We are now pleased to release our  Municipal Red Tape Reduction Policy . These recommendations represent consultations with local businesses, various stakeholders and many committee and board discussions.  The Brandon Chamber of Commerce is committed to working with community partners and government  to create a business friendly environment that supports growth and expansion and this call to action is the spirit of presenting positive and constructive solutions.
