Connemara Chamber CLG

Clifden Chamber of Commerce Company Limited By Guarantee is a voluntary organisation serving the Connemara region of County Galway. With more than 200 member businesses and community groups, the Chamber acts as a central hub for information, networking and advocacy, keeping its members up-to-date on regional developments, policy matters and commercial opportunities.

The Chamber delivers a wide range of services, from regular text-alert notifications and the "Shop Local" competition to large-scale fund-raising initiatives such as the highly successful "Win a Home in Clifden" campaign, which generated €1.8 million for a new Community and Enterprise Hub. It also champions key events-including the Connemara Pony Show, the annual Christmas lights, and various tourism promotions-while representing local interests in planning submissions and discussions with political representatives. By fostering collaboration and championing economic development, the Chamber helps businesses and community organisations thrive in Connemara's vibrant, tourism-driven economy.
