Currently, the AHCC is a community of approximately 1,200 business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals committed to scaling small businesses and empowering individuals through economic growth and wealth creation. The AHCC is the largest Hispanic chamber in the country and the largest chamber of commerce in New Mexico. Our membership is comprised of approximately 60% Hispanic-Owned Businesses and 40% Non-Hispanic-Owned Businesses. While being a historically Hispanic-focused association, we are inclusive and proud to consider ourselves the Small Business Chamber of not only Albuquerque but of the state of New Mexico. Our WHY We believe in contributing to a greater cause - we believe in adding value to your membership. The way we do that at the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce (AHCC) is by providing a place where successful people can meet and collaborate. What we've found is that most people are one connection away from realizing their dream. Mission The AHCC is organized to promote economic development, to enhance economic opportunities and to provide business and workforce education with an emphasis on the Hispanic and small business community in Albuquerque and New Mexico.
