Felixstowe Chamber to celebrate growth and investment at March AGM

Felixstowe Chamber of Commerce will be holding its Annual General Meeting [AGM] at The Orwell Hotel in Felixstowe on Thursday 9th March 2023, from 6.30pm to 8.30pm, in The Library. The meeting is free to attend, with refreshments provided, and is open to the public. 

Felixstowe Chamber is celebrating a record 64 members – an increase of some 50 members since its last AGM in March 2022 – and, encouragingly, a significant proportion are choosing to join at the higher Silver and Gold levels. 

A record number of new members attended the Chamber’s popular ‘Attracting, Recruiting and Retaining Staff’ Business Breakfast at SeaYou Cafe & Restaurant on 9th February

Paul Borroughs, Chair of Felixstowe Chamber of Commerce, said: 

“It is fair to say that COVID had a tremendous impact on membership and participation in Felixstowe Chamber of Commerce. However, we are grateful that – with a lot of hard work and cooperation from our community – we have been able to grow our numbers and invest even more in supporting businesses in and around our vibrant town. 

“As Chair, I am lucky to be supported by such an active and enthusiastic Committee, and our AGM is the chance for us to provide an update on our developments and significant progress over the past year, as well as sharing our exciting plans for 2023.

 “We will also be announcing a few upgrades and improvements to our overall offer to our membership, as well as unveiling a new events programme over the coming months.”

Anyone wishing to attend the AGM is encouraged to register their interest by 2nd March 2023 with Business Officer, Amanda Oliver, on 01394 248440 or [email protected]
