About Commerce Business Council

Since 1959, the Commerce Industrial Council, a Chamber of Commerce, has helped hundreds of businesses take root in the City of Commerce. It has been the voice of business since the city's incorporation in 1960. Determined to avoid higher property taxes that annexation to any neighboring city might bring, a hardy band of business leaders and residents set out in 1959 to incorporate the land as the 67th city in Los Angeles County. These volunteers proclaimed their intention to establish a “Model City” with unique advantages for industry and residents alike. Today, the Commerce Industrial Council continues its efforts in business advocacy. As a business resident, you have undoubtedly, moved from a city that imposed taxes to our “No Tax” City. There is no PROPERTY TAX levied; no UTILITY USER TAX; no PAYROLL TAX; no GROSS RECEIPTS TAX, and low BUSINESS LICENSE fees. The Commerce Industrial Council is proud to have made significant contributions leading to the many benefits you receive today. We have over 59 years of experience representing various businesses and industries in Commerce. The Chamber strives to maintain a cooperative working relationship with the City of Commerce. The Chamber is a membership-driven organization supported by membership investments and revenue from fundraising events. Why join the Commerce Industrial Council Chamber of Commerce? There is no better investment for a business or professional firm than membership in the Commerce Industrial Council. The Chamber accomplishes cooperatively for the individual business enterprise what the company could not achieve alone. It represents business interests in the local, state, and federal levels of government and advocates and lobbies strongly for business.
