Malta Chamber Of Smes

Malta Chamber of SMEs (formerly GRTU) is a non-political organisation that serves as the small businesses’ voice within government departments and state corporations and authorities and has gained wide recognition both on a national level as well as worldwide. The Malta Chamber of SMEs policies have always been geared towards the fostering of private venture and the advancement of small and medium-sized owner managed enterprises. This while promoting the principles of a free enterprise economy without neglecting the peculiarities of the viability of Malta’s small economy. The SME Chamber constantly believes that greater prosperity is within reach if commercial principles and practices rather than political ideology were to guide economic policy-making. As a national representative voice with the ability to negotiate a betterment of current and future business prospects, the SME Chamber strives to organise licensed businesses in Malta, particularly those in the retail, wholesale, imports, services, distribution and crafts sector, from all economic activities so that they can achieve higher levels of efficiency and standards of operation within a democratic and liberal economic business environment. A major thrust of the Malta Chamber of SMEs is the encouragement of investment and re-investment by those who really have the interest to make them: Maltese Entrepreneurs. The Malta Chamber of SMEs believes that it is the enthusiasm of entrepreneurs that bring more investments to Malta and not the efforts of bureaucrats.
