The Belgian-American Chamber of Commerce (BACC) is a New York not - for - profit corporation, independent of any other non - profit, commercial or governmental organization. The BACC was formed in 1918 in response to the growing commerce between Belgium and the U.S., making it one of the oldest and most established chambers in the U.S. During this time, the BACC has become one of the most innovative service providers for Belgian-American trade. A wealth of experience and international contacts form the basis of our work and success in the U.S. and Belgium.
