Through its strong relationship with the government, the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines is able to support member companies by facilitating market access and working on the creation of a level playing field for both European and Filipino companies alike.
The ECCP's 24 sector committees convene to discuss cross-cutting and specific issues, listing key recommendations on actions needed to support market access for European businesses, and enable long-term economic welfare for the Philippines. Below are our advocacy wins in 2023.

“We have been with the ECCP for almost 20 years, given the ECCP's professional approach to commercial and political matters. The ECCP has unmatched reach, historically-developed relationships, and experience. Upgrading to a premium membership is an investment into the ECCP’s advocacy prowess and assurance to be heard by the government, due to the ECCP’s well-developed relationships. Our membership facilitated joint advocacies shared and expanded not only through the ECCP, Integrity Initiative, and JFC, but other European chambers as well, opening doors to harvesting opportunities in differentiating our services.“
“Strong connectivity. This is the driving force of both FedEx Express and the ECCP. We share a common vision – to provide robust and unparalleled connections in and out of Europe. Even during these times, we truly appreciate the ECCP for staying committed and dedicated as advocates of resilience. We highly value our membership with the ECCP because it allows us to stay connected to the European business community as we seek to understand how we can continue to support our fellow members to navigate during these challenging times through optimizing their supply chains.“
“ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA Manila provides a broad range of business development services for Austrian companies stepping into the Philippine market. Being among the first to know about new developments in the business landscape here in the Philippines and at the same time being able to highlight different approaches and to discuss solutions for international companies, is what makes participating in ECCP Committees so valuable. Thus, ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA can make good on its commitment towards our member companies to support them in this thriving market.“
“The ECCP has been providing a big help to our business during this global crisis because they have given us a lot of opportunities to learn through the many webinars they organize for their members. The advisory from the chamber is also helpful to keep us updated on all the initiatives by the organization to help businesses. It feels good that somebody is working for the business community. We appreciate the updates from the government and COVID-19 news from the chamber.“
“Pacifictech Solutions has been a member of ECCP since 2013. We stayed as a member of ECCP because they give us access to a local and global network of businesses that opens doors to new opportunities and initiates future collaboration. It has been a fruitful journey that has strengthened our stand in the Philippine and European business community. We truly appreciate their commitment to keep their members engaged during this difficult time. ECCP has always been a provider of good business support and we are looking forward to more years with them.“
“Our partnership has always been one of our dependable avenues when it comes to expanding our network and fostering new partnerships, especially as a key player in a highly competitive and dynamic space. In the several initiatives we have been a part of, we have had profound and valuable experiences that helped shape how we do our business in MPower. As the paradigm on the energy industry continues to shift, we put more value in our involvement in ECCP’s dedicated Energy Committee as they continue to lead meaningful dialogues and pursue endeavors relevant to the changing landscape we are in.“
