Venezuelan Federation of Chambers of Commerce
- Venezuelan Federation of Chambers of Commerce
The Venezuelan Federation of Chambers of Commerce ( _es. Federación de Cámaras y Asociaciones de Comercio y Producción de Venezuela) or Fedecámaras is composed of chambers of commerce ("cámara" in Spanish) in twelve basic trade groups: banking, agriculture, commerce, construction, energy, manufacturing, media, mining, ranching, insurance, transportation, and tourism.
This organization is at political odds with the current Venezuelan president, Hugo Chávez. During a failed coup d'état against him in April 2002, former Fedecámaras president Pedro Carmona assumed the role of interim de facto president of Venezuela for two days.
