About Us
What we do
The Chamber exists to serve the interests of Philippine and American businesses through the participation of members in promoting their long-term objectives, while contributing to the civic and economic development of the Philippines.
In keeping with its mission, AmCham regularly consults with Philippine government officials, agencies and bureaus, as well as business, community and civic leaders. For this purpose it maintains standing Committees, each dealing with relevant issues affecting Philippine business and industries.
AmCham also maintains the American Desk at the Board of Investments (BOI), Department of Trade & Industry, which started operation in 1992 as a concrete, visible commitment to actively assist U.S. companies and individuals doing business or desiring to do business in the Philippines.
A Brief History
Incorporated in 1920, the American Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines (AmCham) has been striving to contribute to the Philippine economic growth for the socioeconomic development of the Filipinos. More than 100 years of serving and developing the American-Filipino Business Community in the Philippines.
Its service has long started as the Manila Coffee Round Table (1902) and later as the Manila Merchants Association. Although with different names, the Chamber’s commitment did not waver through time. It has been true to its commitment of developing and looking after the welfare of American businesses in the Philippines.
