Business Networking Lunch 2026

The Sierra Leone Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture (SLCCIA) successfully hosted its Business Networking Lunch on 19 May 2026 at the New Brookfields Hotel, Freetown, bringing together key stakeholders from the private sector, government, diplomatic missions, and development partners.

The event was organised to strengthen business relationships, foster collaboration, and provide a platform for dialogue on private sector development and economic growth in Sierra Leone. Participants engaged in meaningful networking sessions and discussions focused on trade opportunities, investment promotion, and strengthening partnerships across sectors.

A key highlight of the event was the participation of the Minister of Trade and Industry, who delivered the keynote address. The event also witnessed the signing of a Joint Communiqué between the Ministry of Trade and Industry, SLCCIA, and the Sierra Leone Manufacturers Association, reaffirming a shared commitment to industrial growth, local manufacturing, and private sector development.

The Business Networking Lunch marked an important milestone in the Chamber’s efforts to revive its flagship engagement platforms, strengthen collaboration within the business community, and reinforce its role as the leading voice of Sierra Leone’s private sector.
