Message from the President


The African Chamber of Commerce of Texas was established in March of 2001, and was brought about in response to the growing number of African businesses in Austin and across the state of Texas.

The purpose of ACCT is to provide a place for education, networking with African businesses around the country, linkage of African businesses with American businesses and the continent of Africa. ACCT is comprised of a Board of Directors, allied businesses and individual members.
