What our members say about us
They appreciate and understand the challenges we face,
through our membership we get the opportunity to meet with and influence key
policy makers.
We also value the networking and connections we make with
other members of the Chamber sharing issues and hearing different
approaches, we regularly learn something new.
We made the decision to upgrade our membership from gold to platinum July 2020 and it’s not a decision we have once regretted. Our journey as a chamber member is much longer but in reflection of nearly 3 years involvement with The Platinum Group specifically, we recognise the move to the group was pivotal for us as a business.
The relationship we have with Gail
Arnold is second to none, she has become an extension of the team here at MET
and that’s because she really understands our values, culture, and business
goals. The wider chamber team are also a fantastic support network, and our
membership allows us access to an endless amount of tools allowing us to grow
our business, increase our knowledge and share best practice with fellow
members.
Being involved with the Black Country Chamber is a membership like no other, the support we get is unrivalled.
Being part of the BCCC family gives us the benefit of networking with prospective customers and industry heads at events, it offers industry insights, news, and training courses appropriate to our business, and an overall sense of belonging to a community with the common goal and determination for supporting the Black Country.
