Hispanic-owned businesses are the fastest growing business sector in the United States with Hispanic women entrepreneurs establishing businesses faster than any other group in the country. This along with additional demographic shifts in Ohio is what motivates and keeps the Ohio Hispanic Chambers of Commerce (OHCC) busy in the state of Ohio.
The prime objective of the OHCC is to promote the development and growth of the Hispanic business community in Ohio. The OHCC is committed to providing information and assistance to its membership by serving as a referral and resource center. The OHCC monitors local, state, and national programs and legislation to evaluate the impact on Hispanic owned businesses and works to identify ways to provide opportunities for greater economic development.
Every year, outstanding Hispanic business women and men are recognized by the OHCC at its Annual Awards Gala Dinner for their dedication and leadership in the Hispanic business community. The OHCC celebrated its 11th Annual Awards Gala, on Sept. 12, at the Renaissance Hotel in Columbus, Ohio.
“It has been great learning more about the variety of initiatives and work that goes on at the city and state level to help develop and grow Hispanic owned businesses as it represents a great opportunity for our community.”
— Joel Díaz, Member of the Board of Directors, Ohio Hispanic Chambers of Commerce
