Success story from a Queensland business

Why become a Member?

Hear from our Members about how a Business Chamber Queensland membership has helped their business thrive.

“As a business you can be really alone, and you face a lot of challenges with exporting. The Chamber’s skills in knowing the latest news is really important and the whole team works tirelessly, so that really gives you a comfort. It’s just that extra support that every business really needs.”

Alison Atia
Alison Atia, Skin02

“I think one of the primary roles of Business Chamber Queensland is to provide that advocacy. As an individual business, we don’t really have much of a voice, but it’s having the consolidated voice of hundreds of businesses that can advocate on our behalf to government.”

Julian Lancaster-Smith
Julian Lancaster-Smith, Suncoast Gold Macadamias

“We’re a member of Business Chamber Queensland because it’s such a valuable resource for us. We can find really useful information through the Chamber to help us grow our business. There’s also some really useful tools, such as the grant finder, which helps us access important government funding. There’s also some really good tools for us to help keep our team thriving, developing and growing too.”

Oscar Henderson
Oscar Henderson, Elysium Hair

“We’re proud that we’re a member of Business Chamber Queensland for a lot of reasons. One of them is it gives us this pool of knowledge about things like international trade, which we’re moving into in a big way, and saves us just having all these specialist lawyers and accountants and whatever. We know what they say is spot on, up to date and we trust them.”

Gordon Chalmers
