What Members Say
Membership opened doors I couldn't open alone. Within six months of joining, we completed our first export to Europe — the Certificate of Origin from OCCIMA made it possible.
The chamber's advocacy work directly contributed to the removal of three illegal levies that had been eating into our margins for years. No other organisation could have achieved that.
The Indo-Nigeria Business Summit introduced me to my current raw materials supplier in Mumbai. That relationship has reduced our production costs by 18%. OCCIMA paid for itself ten times over.
