President Message

It is an honor and a privilege to serve as the President of the Maharashtra Chamber of Commerce, Industry & Agriculture (MACCIA), especially during its centenary year.

From its foundation in 1927 to today, MACCIA has always been the voice of Maharashtra’s entrepreneurs, farmers, and industrialists. As we celebrate this legacy, my vision is to make MACCIA a future-ready, globally connected platform that empowers every entrepreneur from a rural artisan to a global innovator.

We are committed to strengthening MSMEs and startups, driving digital transformation, building farmer-to-market linkages, and creating stronger International collaborations.

Our new headquarters in Mumbai is not just a building it is a symbol of innovation and opportunity for the next century of growth.

With global partnerships, smart policy advocacy, and grassroots empowerment, we aim to position Maharashtra as a global trade and investment hub.

I am deeply grateful to all our members, partners, and stakeholders for their continued trust and collaboration.

Together, let us write the next chapter of inclusive, sustainable, and world-class growth for Maharashtra and India.

Your Collaborator,
Shri Ravindra Mangave
President
