Welcome to Uckfield Chamber of Commerce

Uckfield Chamber of Commerce is an established independent Chamber providing a united stronger business voice for businesses within the town and surrounding villages. The Chamber provides regular opportunities for members to meet and network at various times of the day, acting as a forum to discuss issues that impact trade and commerce both locally and the wider area across the county.

We boast a diverse range of business members including third generation established companies to brand new start-ups. And our executive committee is similarly comprised of a range of professionals and independent business owners. It makes every sense to be part of your local Chamber of Commerce.
