Welcome Mr. Matthews
Hi all, In my purchasing position with Dallas, I worked with an outreach team to insure participation in the bid awards by minority vendors.
 
In Irving, I worked with the City Manager and City Council in developing the first program the City had in assuring minority vendor participation in the bid process, and I hired the first M/WBE program coordinator.  
 
I am evry proud to join and help in what I can.

Zero IMITAZIONE - the campaign has begun!

6/29/2011

0 Comments

 
Dear Chamber Members and Friends ,

Zero Imitazione is a campaign developed by PRHCCPC to bring awareness of the the harmful affects on buying and selling counterfeit merchandise. It is wrong and it involves Human Trafficking, and it worsens the stability to our small businesses.It breaks down the infrastructure of all entreprenuers.Tax revenues are not reaching our tax collector offices , so hence everything goes up.While those selling merchandise out of their cars,homes , flea markets and festivals...our small mom and pop shops are suffering.
You may think this is a joke or an attack on specific persons,people this is something I am not making up.No sir , this is serious.
Follow our group page on facebook. We have now more than 100 followers against this type of merchandise.
Think about it : would you feel better to know that you are walking around with a FAKE designer bag,jewelry , fragrance ..heck even pharmacuticals than to pay the real price for the real merchandise? Or is it all about the deal than the stealing of a poor young childs soul.One who has to break his back for a $30 Louis Vuitton fake bag to go in your hand.Not only this , but the merchandise is being produce with harmful after effects.Additionally fueling gangs and terroism.

This is a chamber that represents the small business community , not one that feels it's okay to sell and acquire goods that came from the torture , slavery and trafficking of human beings.We are not that hard up for members.And as the head of this organization I am sure my members feel the same way.
Join the cause our State Government is looking at this very carefully.The chamber will be there to bring the awareness of this awful illegal process.

So if your're in love with something that costs too much,save up for it or visit your local designer outlets!
After all we are in Florida and there are plenty. Don't be fooled by faux ...say ZERO IMITAZIONE! for me..
