About us
The New Bronx Chamber of Commerce is one of the most influential voices for business in Bronx County, known for its commitment to legislative advocacy. The Chamber hosts a wide range of programs, events, and services for its members, ranging from large corporations to cultural institutions, universities and colleges, hospitals and medical centers, and small to mid-sized businesses. Currently, the Chamber also provides access to a number of free pandemic recovery & other resources through the NYC Small Business Resource Network, open to all Bronx small businesses. Founded in 1894, the Bronx Chamber of Commerce - a not-for-profit, membership-driven organization - has played a key role in the borough's economic development and transformation of the Bronx business community. The Bronx Chamber was instrumental in many commercial projects that have employed thousands in the borough, including: the creation of Fordham Plaza; creation of the truck stop facility at the Hunts Point Terminal Market; the successful 1986 campaign to keep the New York Yankees in the Bronx; advocacy for a Free Trade Zone in the borough; collaboration with President Jimmy Carter to produce much-needed revenue for businesses via Project: Special Impact; partnership with David Rockefeller on an urban policy plan for the Bronx; creation of The Bronx Chamber Action Group to clean up and beautify Bronx commercial corridors.

Oh what a night! Click for our Friday Extra video with highlights from our 2024 Gala: https://lnkd.in/ehykJVva #Bronx Chamber President Lisa Sorin, Board of Directors, and our whole team wish to thank everyone who attended our Gala yesterday and made the evening a smashing success! The excitement and energy were palpable as old friends and colleagues reunited, new connections were made, and we learned in a most unique way about AI's potential for #businesses in the Bronx while celebrating our Honorees D & J AMBULETTE SERVICES, Lemle & Wolff Companies, Amazon, and Monroe University. Co-Emcees Michael Max Knobbe of BronxNet Community Television and Sophia, AI-enhanced humanoid by Hanson Robotics Limited, were a huge hit, bringing insights about #AI to the audience and showcasing the possibilities of these technologies for economic development in our borough. We were also grateful to have a number of our elected officials join us to commemorate this historic evening. We'll have many more photos to share soon - stay tuned!

With state-of-the-art roasting equipment, a team of skilled roasters, and the capacity to roast and pack over 14,000 pounds of coffee per day, The Roasting Room reframes the South Bronx as a specialty coffee destination.
