Our history

1911

The Chamber was incorporated as the Sydney Board of Trade with a membership of 38. The unified communities of Glace Bay, New Waterford, Dominion, Sydney, North Sydney, Sydney Mines, and Louisbourg, provided a strong voice for Cape Breton professionals going forward.

2002

The Industrial Cape Breton Board of Trade became the Sydney and Area Chamber of Commerce in order to modernize our image and bring the organization in line with other business organizations in North America.

2018

The Chamber renamed itself the Cape Breton Regional Chamber of Commerce, to encompass the region in its entirety, and embarked on a four-year strategic plan which included a rebranding. You will find the Cape Breton Regional Chamber of Commerce office at 50 Dorchester Street in Downtown Sydney, but the organization represents all areas of the CBRM.

2021

Cape Breton Regional Chamber of Commerce remains a private-sector led, not-for-profit, non-partisan organization. We aspire to be a catalyst for business growth by listening to and advocating for our members’ needs. This means creating a strong business community through collaboration, networking, advocacy, and education.
