Championing Muslim Economic Empowerment in Sacramento
In early 2025, a group of Muslim entrepreneurs, professionals, and community leaders asked a critical question:
"Who champions our economic voice in the state capital?"
The answer became the Sacramento Metro Muslim Chamber of Commerce (SMMCC)—a member-powered hub that unites businesses for education, research, networking, trade promotion, and workforce development. We do not lobby or engage in electioneering.
Our Leadership
The strength of the Sacramento Metro Muslim Chamber of Commerce lies in its leadership. Our Board of Directors provides the strategic vision and governance that drive our mission forward—empowering businesses, professionals, students, and investors while shaping an inclusive economic future for Sacramento.

SMMCC exists to close that gap.
We CONNECT people, AMPLIFY voices, and CREATE pathways so success isn't individual, it's shared.
Be part of that impact.
