Chamber picks name for its new home

East Midlands Chamber has adopted Commerce House as the name for the new registered office it will move to in February.

St Andrew’s House, on Millennium Way, off Dunston Road, Chesterfield, will be formally renamed Commerce House.

The decision to retain the ‘commerce’ connection was taken by the Board of Directors yesterday. The current headquarters building in Canal Wharf is called Commerce Centre.

Scott Knowles, Chief Executive of East Midlands Chamber, said:-

“Our offices in Derby and Nottingham each have ‘commerce’ in their names, which was a deliberate move to ensure parity of branding across the region. Although we considered other names for the Chesterfield office, the directors felt we should continue with the ‘commerce’ branding.”

The Chamber has already adopted the name and is in the process of registering it with the appropriate authorities.

Destination Chesterfield, who are currently based in at the Commerce Centre on Canal Wharf will also make the move with East Midlands Chamber staff to Commerce House next year.
