The Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines (La Cámara)

The Spanish Chamber of Commerce, (Cámara Oficial Española de Comercio Industria y Navegación en Filipinas, Inc.) was established on July 16, 1899 shortly after the American occupation of Manila. As one of the pioneers of commercial chambers established in the Philippines, the objectives of La Cámara are to expand business opportunities to its members and to perpetuate the centuries old commercial/economic bond between the Philippines and Spain.
