How We Got Started
In 1992, Jose Perez, Clark Vargas, Sergio Arnaiz and Jorge Hernandez, all business owners, undertook the task of unifying the Hispanic business community. They began meeting because of the decision by the city to leave out Hispanics in the purchasing set aside program.
Later, after the city held hearings regarding this matter, other business owners came to join the efforts and formed the Hispanic American Business Association (HABA).
They immediately began to advocate for Hispanic business and to promote the region’s rich Hispanic culture and heritage. The organization was renamed the First Coast Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (FCHCC) in early 2003. The FCHCC has grown to include individual, corporate, and nonprofit members.
