The 64th Annual General Meeting of the Limassol Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), held on Tuesday, 10 November 2026, at the St. Raphael Resort & Marina, marked the end of the six-year term of the Chamber’s President, Mr Andreas Tsouloftas, and the beginning of a new chapter for the organisation, with the election of its new Board of Directors for the 2026–2029 term.
The official proceedings opened with an address by the Minister of Energy, Commerce and Industry, Michael Damianos. This was followed by addresses from the President of the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI), Stavros Stavrou, the President of the Limassol District Local Government Organisation (EOA), Yiannis Tsouloftas, and the Mayor of Limassol, Yiannis Armeftis.
The addresses highlighted the importance of cooperation between the state, local government and the business community in promoting growth and development.
This was followed by the outgoing LCCI President’s report, delivered by Andreas Tsouloftas, who presented an overview of the Chamber’s work, activities and key initiatives throughout his six-year term, from 2020 to 2026.
Particular emphasis was placed on the LCCI’s ongoing efforts to promote major infrastructure projects in Limassol, the need to accelerate development plans, and the Chamber’s interventions in addressing issues affecting business activity and the economic development of the city and district.
During Mr Tsouloftas’ six-year presidency, the LCCI undertook a wide range of initiatives, strengthening its institutional role as the representative of the business community and as an active organisation promoting Limassol’s economic growth and development.
As part of the General Meeting, honorary distinctions were also presented to businesses and individuals in recognition of their longstanding contribution and their 50 years of continuous membership of the LCCI.
The meeting concluded with a tribute to the memory of three individuals who had served the Chamber and made a significant contribution to its work: Toni Antoniou, Dimi Mavropoulos and Andreas Laou.
