The Brampton Board of
Trade prides itself on being a leader for advocacy work
on behalf of its members. The Board of Trade exists to
ensure that members' concerns are effectively voiced at
the municipal, regional, provincial and federal levels
of government. There is strength in numbers, and our affiliations
with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) and the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce (CCC), along with a growing membership
of The Brampton Board of Trade, ensure that our strong
voice is heard on matters of interest to the business
community.
If there is a policy issue affecting your business that
