SAVANNAH, Ga. — Over recent years, the Hispanic community has experienced significant growth in the Savannah area, and according to the president of the Metropolitan Savannah Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, this trend is expected to continue.

The role of the Hispanic Chamber extends beyond supporting local Hispanic businesses; it also seeks to act as a bridge between the Hispanic and non-Hispanic communities, amplifying voices and fostering understanding.

“The Hispanic Chamber essentially connects those unfamiliar with Hispanic culture with those who are knowledgeable or are part of the Hispanic community,” stated Hispanic Chamber President Alfonso Ribot.

Ribot said that the diverse community is what the Savannah area needs, and the Hispanic businesses have something unique that everyone can enjoy.

“I know we’re talking about some of the things that are happening out there in which businesses are closing, but one of the things that Hispanic businesses are doing is food,” Ribot said. “Our culture, our way of treating people is appealing not just to Hispanics.”

Ribot said Hispanic business owners are more prone to stick to the business because it’s like a family and that business needs to be promoted.

“If you are non-Hispanic, Hispanic and you are able lease patronize Hispanic businesses and anyone that has that little sign on the door that says Hispanic Chamber of Commerce member, come in you’re going to love it,” Ribot said.

The Metropolitan Savannah Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce said they welcome anyone to join the chamber.
