Establishing the chamber

The Gaza Chamber of Commerce, Industry, and Agriculture was established in 1925 to serve as the voice of the private sector and the driving force of Gaza's economy. For nearly a century, the Chamber has been the cornerstone of the development of trade, industry, and agriculture, providing services to thousands of merchants, businessmen, and investors, and contributing to the improvement of the economic environment despite immense challenges.

For nearly a century, the Chamber has been the cornerstone of the development of trade, industry, and agriculture, providing services to thousands of merchants, businessmen, and investors, and contributing to the improvement of the economic environment despite immense challenges.

Despite political instability, siege, and repeated wars that have devastated infrastructure and severely impacted the economy, the Chamber has never ceased to fulfill its mission. On the contrary, it has strengthened its resolve to support the private sector, advocate for the rights of merchants, industrialists, and farmers, and push for the opening of crossings and facilitation of commercial movement. It has also played a vital role in reconstruction and economic recovery. In light of the recent war on Gaza and its unprecedented losses, the Chamber now stands at the forefront, making tremendous efforts to revive the economy, support affected projects, and develop innovative solutions to ensure the continuity of commercial, industrial, and agricultural activities.

As part of its future vision, the Chamber is moving towards digitization and embracing technological advancement by developing modern electronic services and adopting digital transformation in its procedures to streamline operations and enhance efficiency. It is not merely an economic institution; it is a resilient entity that embodies the spirit of Gaza and its determination to endure and progress despite all circumstances.
