The Black Business Council (BBC) is an independent membership based organisation representing professional, business associations and chambers. Their purpose is to advocate for transformation of the South African economy, through aggregation and amplifying of member opinion, thought leadership and policy change, in order to achieve meaningful and inclusive economic growth.

The long-term growth and success of black business is inextricably intertwined with the creation of employment for the people of South Africa, the alleviation of poverty and the improvement in the living conditions and standards of all South Africans.

BBC is thus a key player in the dynamics of the business community in South Africa and has set itself an expansionary and visionary path that is aimed at embracing all elements of the business community no matter how small or diverse the interests of the broader South Africa community are.
