The Mauritius Chamber of Commerce and Industry, established in 1850, is the oldest non-profit institution representing the private sector in Mauritius. With the increase in the island's volume of trade during the first decades of British administration, the Mauritian business community felt the need for a formal representational and arbitration framework to foster the interests of the trading community and to settle disputes and conflicts arising in trade-related activities.

The present-day Chamber originally came into being as the 'Chamber of Commerce'. It took on its present name of 'Mauritius Chamber of Commerce and Industry' in 1965, when the country was moving towards independence and was contemplating the diversification of its economy through appropriate forms of industrial activities.
Since its launching, the Mauritius Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) has evolved from a purely representative and consultative body to a dynamic actor in the socio-economic development of the country. Throughout its years of existence, it has constantly striven to carry out its fundamental mission of defending and promoting the vital interests of its members. It has also set up and developed the organisational structures capable of providing a wide range of highly professional services.
