With Autumn rolling in and Covid restrictions increasing, it can seem like a gloomy time for business in Greater Manchester. Times are tough, but the business community of Greater Manchester has shown a huge amount of resolve, resilience, and innovation over the last few months, and at the Chamber we believe that this mindset is here to stay.
A testament to this is that we have welcomed four new businesses to Chamber Membership this month. We look forward to encouraging our new members, and old, to continue to be part of what makes Greater Manchester great and contribute to the wider business community and city region. Learn more about our new members below.

On joining the Chamber Lee Bennett, International Account Manager, said
‘We are joining the Chamber to help us build business relationships in Manchester and to attend networking events to further understand areas that can benefit our business just as much as us helping other businesses in the area. In addition to this the sessions hosted by the Chamber will only help our business gain knowledge and move forward.’
