Our Aims…

…to be progressive, provide encouragement for each other, share knowledge, adopt best practice and welcome new members to join us.

We are working hard to show the world what Richmond has to offer and we willingly give advice to anyone thinking of setting up business in the area. The Association provides a voice for business in the area, is consulted by a range of agencies and strategic bodies and has a say on developments in the area.  The Association also supports and initiates activities which promote the town and contribute towards its economic success.

We are pleased that you have visited our website, which is an example of how we work on behalf of our members and the area. You do not need to be in business to find out about working, living or visiting Richmond, so do please read on.
