The ECCP traces its beginnings to 1978 with a shared commitment to advancing European-Philippine business relations.
The European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (ECCP) is a multilateral foreign chamber that promotes European interests in the Philippines and vice versa. As a membership organization with close to 900 members among its ranks and a strong partnership with the government, the ECCP offers a robust business network that holds great potential in translating to tangible business opportunities. The Chamber strives to make its members’ viewpoints heard on economic and business issues, legislative measures, and administrative regulations.
As the largest foreign chamber in the Philippines, the ECCP works to continuously champion the European-Philippine business community. The Chamber operates by connecting members and industry leaders through business meetings and gatherings; equipping workforces with tools and skills through seminars and workshops; providing extensive services to exhibitors and visitors of European and Asian trade fairs; and linking the business community with Philippine government officials through dialogues on important economic issues central to the European-Philippine business landscape.
Through these efforts, the ECCP has established itself as a trusted voice and bridge between the private sector and government – both locally and abroad. Its reach spans Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, and it works closely with European embassies and the Delegation of the European Union in the Philippines.
It is to this end that the Chamber’s collective effort is geared towards the long-term growth and success of European businesses and the sustained economic progress and welfare of the Philippines.
