The main business association in The Gambia is the Gambia Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI), which also accepts U.S. companies to its membership. GCCI advocates for the interest of the private sector and is the main liaison body for raising issues of interest to the private sector with the government. Government agencies and international organizations regularly consult GCCI.  Membership is open to all businesses operating in the country.  The American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) in The Gambia is another active business association in the country. While it is not affiliated with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, its membership is still open to U.S. companies.
