The BCCGKC was originally founded by fourteen local African-American business owners as a vehicle through which to promote, maintain and sustain economic progress for African American business owned enterprises in the metropolitan Kansas City area. The BCCGKC also serves as a medium for ensuring the participation of these enterprises in the overall business and economic development plans of the area.
The Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Greater Kansas City is dedicated to the creation, advancement, promotion and development of economic opportunities within the Hispanic market and business community.
