Committees
Committees are a key component of the Brandon Chamber of Commerce. They are comprised of Chamber members and are formed to address specific issues or interest areas. They are also one of the best ways for our membership to become actively involved in policy development around various issues. Without the vibrant and open committee structure, which is in place at the Brandon Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber would cease to be an effective voice for business.
