Chamber members honoured

More than 150 Island businesses were presented with special certificates from the Isle of Wight Chamber of Commerce, Tourism and Industry, as it continued its centenary celebrations.

The Bronze and Silver awards, for 10 and 20 years membership, were presented over two evenings held at Newclose Cricket Club, Blackwater Road, Newport.  

Gold and Platinum certificates were presented earlier this year, at the Chamber’s centenary lunch.

Chamber President Steve Porter and Chief Executive Kevin Smith paid tribute to the wide range of businesses for their active involvement in the Chamber, and their support for the Island’s business community.

Kevin said: “The Chamber has been recognised in this, its centenary year, as one of the most progressive in the country, and we could never have achieved this without the active and loyal support of our member businesses.”
