Last week, the NYC Department of Small Business Services announced the citywide expansion of Chamber On-the-Go, in partnership with NYC Council Member Robert E. Cornegy Jr. and the Chambers of Commerce from all five boroughs (Bronx Chamber of Commerce, Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, Queens Chamber of Commerce, Staten Island Chamber of Commerce).
Focused on communities with high need and limited access to services, Chamber On-the-Go will deploy trained business specialists to conduct storefront visits and connect 2,000 New York City small business owners with free, tailored supportive services that can help their businesses thrive.
NY1 covered the expanded initiative launch at small business Jontue Discount Boutique in Far Rockaway with NYC Council Member Donovan Richards, the Chamber Presidents, and local business organizations in attendance.
