A senior councillor has welcomed the news that a chamber of commerce will be set up in Hertsmere to support businesses and boost the economy.
Cllr Pat Strack said Hertsmere Connect, which was created in partnership with the Watford Chamber of Commerce, is positive news for Borehamwood.
She said: "It’s really quite exciting because it will give businesses a bigger voice and the chance to attract more investment in the area.
“I hope all of the shop owners join up and they work together to make sure we take robust action for the good of everyone.”
Hertsmere Connect will be exhibiting at the Best Business Expo event in Elstree on October 10 ahead of its official launch on October 22 at Elstree Studios.
