The Coggeshall Chamber of Trade & Commerce (CCTC) was established to provide assistance in the promotion of all the business in Coggeshall, which include a mixture of shops, eateries, one man bands, to fairly large commercial companies. Entry on the website can be assured by joining the CCTC and paying the annual membership of £25.00. The CCTC is also involved in sponsoring and promoting events around the village, giving members the opportunity to partake, by way of a stall, or advertise via the event. Amongst these are notably the Christmas festival where the tree and Christmas light, decorations and ‘switching-on’ of the Christmas tree lights will be organised and funded by the CCTC. Via the website we also promote our historical village and produce a leaflet which shows the many interesting places to visit in and around Coggeshall. To become a Member of the Coggeshall Chamber of Trade & Commerce either telephone or email Brad Rawlings, you can find details on our Become a Member page
