The PEC Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has appointed Duarte Da Silva as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Duarte worked closely with Lesley Lavender, former CEO, to ensure a seamless handover of responsibilities. Lavender, who served the chamber for five years, has moved on to become the CEO of the Federation of Ontario Cottagers Associations.
“With his proven leadership, in-depth knowledge of the County and industry expertise, we are confident Duarte will excel in further elevating the chamber’s mission to support local businesses,” said Jason Clarke, outgoing board chair.
Da Silva said he’s thrilled.
“The chamber has been part of the fabric of PEC for almost 120 years as the central hub for business. Our members have equity in the chamber and are the reason for our success,” he said. “I look forward to working with our business leaders, partners and government, as we together, make the County the best place to live and do business.”
