ABOUT WANDSWORTH
Wandsworth was once a beating heart of industrial activity with mills along the banks of the River Wandle. This London borough has one of the country's oldest brewing sites at the Ram Brewery and a hubbub of factories once used to line the banks of the Thames.
With the decline of manufacturing in the UK, the borough has transformed into a hive of small businesses, serving not just the residents of its rapidly growing population but providing services across the City of London, the West End and globally. With over 14,000 VAT registered businesses in the borough, it has one of the largest communities of small businesses of any equivalent area in the UK. Home to the new and iconic Battersea Power Station development, this area of London has extended the 'South Bank' along the river Thames, into an exciting new area to live, work and visit. Home also to the American Embassy and New Covent Garden Market, this area is attracting large corporations and will soon be a European HQ site for Apple, the world's first trillion dollar company. All situated just a stone's throw from the heart of London, one of the finest capital cities in the world.
A LITTLE HISTORY OF WANDSWORTH CHAMBER
Wandsworth Chamber of Commerce, covering one of the largest Inner London boroughs, is a friendly, diverse network of business people who regularly come together to further business interests locally and globally, creating a vibrant business community and thriving local economy. The present Chamber was formed from the three previous Chambers of Wandsworth, Battersea and Balham & Tooting when the boroughs were merged in 1965. It has been working tirelessly to promote business in the borough. The management committee is made up of local business people and representatives from Wandsworth Council and local institutions. The chamber has a track record of helping local businesses to develop sound business relationships with introductions to key stakeholders for the purpose of mutual self-help, creating local supply chain opportunities and ensuring continued success for all.
