How do we work with members?

EuroCommerce is a member-driven association and we encourage all members to get involved in areas of interest to them. Our members regularly meet to discuss policy initiatives, exchange information, and develop a common stance on policy issues; always in compliance with competition rules. Commission officials and Members of the European Parliament are frequently invited our meetings.

Where we can, we join forces with other stakeholders to achieve better results. We engage with other business organisations, trade unions and consumer and environmental NGOs, to understand societal trends and to adopt joint positions where helpful. We also partner with research and data providers to help inform on our sector better, highlight its challenges and how these are being addressed.
