      <p><![CDATA[The archive consists of listing of companies and businesses that have been established in the city of Thessaloniki since 1919. From 1992 and onwards, the registration is digital. Its physical form which is handwritten is divided into three periods:
i. 1919 - 1935 (58 inventory books)
ii. 1935 - 1970 (46 inventory books with approximately 12,000 entries)
iii. 1970 -1990 
Greek Jewish activity consists of a significant part of the archive, when in March 1943, all Jewish businesses were banished, under the orders of the Supreme Military Governor of the North Aegean.

      <p><![CDATA[The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Thessaloniki is established in 1918. Its operation begins in 1919. Events of major importance for the nation coincided with the beginning of CCI: the Asia Minor catastrophe, the immigration and settlement of refugees, wars, the Great Depression. The constant presence of the CCI in decision making constitutes a great service to the National Economy and the preservation of the fabric of our society. In 1930, Eleftherios Venizelos inaugurates the neo-classical building where the Chamber is housed. In 1960, the Chamber concentrates its activity in the area of economic contracts with other countries, organizing trade missions, meetings and conferences attended by key people of the area. Today, the CCI has 20 thousand active members (registered) which with their dynamic business presence have ensured the 50% of Greek exports for Thessaloniki and the greater region. It is an active member of the Eurochamber.]]></p>
