Application Georgia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce

Dear Prospective Member:

The Georgia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (GHCC) is a non-profit organization committed to promoting and supporting the domestic and international economic development of Hispanic businesses and individuals, and to serve as a link between non-Hispanic entities and the Hispanic market in the state of Georgia.

The GHCC offers its members access to a variety of valuable resources, information, support services, and networking opportunities. In addition, the GHCC advances the interests of its members by advocating for the rights of the Hispanic business community through the pursuit of initiatives that shape business-pertinent government policies at the local, state, and national levels. Also, in 2001 the GHCC established the Hispanic American Center for Economic Development (HACED), which is the educational arm of the GHCC. With the purpose of advancing the formation and growth of Hispanic businesses in the state of Georgia, HACED offers more than 80 educational seminars not only in Atlanta metro area but throughout the State of Georgia.

Georgia’s Hispanic community is a vibrant one. With an estimated statewide population of 770,816 in 2008, Hispanic buying power in the state rose from 1,328,827 in 1990 to 13,606,097 in 2007. Georgia is the 10^th largest Hispanic market in the United States, at 13.6 billion for 2007, compared to its 1990 rank of 19^th. Georgia has the highest rate of Hispanic owned business start-ups in the eastern seaboard, with growth of 15% - 18% annually. In Atlanta, ten of the top twenty-five minority owned firms are owned by Hispanics.

The GHCC welcomes memberships to businesses and individuals dedicated to the goals and ideals of the Chamber. Your membership not only provides the Chamber the opportunity to join in partnership with you, but also allows us to have a greater voice for action. We invite you to join other business leaders who share our exciting vision for Georgia’s Hispanic community.

¡Nuestra casa es su casa!

Sincerely,

Sandra Font

Interim President & CEO
