The Zambia Diaspora Chamber of Commerce (ZDCC) is a dynamic business platform established to serve as the leading and preferred gateway between the United States and Zambia. Our mission is to highlight the ease of doing business in both nations while showcasing the untapped fiscal strength, professional expertise, and entrepreneurial capacity of Zambians living in the diaspora.

At ZDCC, we believe that the Zambian diaspora community represents one of the most powerful and underutilized forces for economic growth. Spread across the United States and beyond, Zambians abroad bring with them not only capital but also vast experience, global business insight, and a strong commitment to national development. Our chamber exists to connect these valuable resources to meaningful opportunities across the US–Zambia market space.

What We Do

ZDCC serves as a bridge for trade, investment, and partnerships. We connect Zambian entrepreneurs and professionals in the diaspora with key opportunities in Zambia, while also guiding U.S. investors and corporations seeking to expand into Zambia’s emerging markets.

Our work includes:

• Business Networking & Matchmaking: Creating opportunities for meaningful connections between diaspora professionals, Zambian businesses, and U.S. investors.

• Investment Facilitation: Providing insight and advisory support to make cross-border investments seamless, transparent, and successful.

• Capacity Building: Empowering Zambians in the diaspora through business education, mentorship, and access to resources that enhance global competitiveness.

• Trade Promotion: Showcasing Zambia’s potential in key sectors such as agriculture, mining, technology, tourism, and renewable energy to international partners.

• Policy Advocacy: Collaborating with government and private stakeholders to ensure that policies favor diaspora engagement and bilateral investment growth.

Our Commitment

We are committed to strengthening the Zambia–U.S. business relationship by fostering trust, transparency, and mutual prosperity. We aim to dismantle the barriers that often hinder cross-border collaboration — such as limited information, logistical challenges, and regulatory complexity — by offering practical support, professional networks, and real-time business intelligence.

Our Community

ZDCC is more than an organization — it’s a movement of Zambian professionals, entrepreneurs, and investors who are shaping the future of trade and investment between the two nations. We are proud to celebrate the achievements of Zambians abroad and at home, and we continue to create spaces for collaboration, innovation, and shared success.
