The Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (FWHCC) has selected Anette Landeros as the new CEO and president of the organization. She will take her post on July 15, succeeding John Hernandez.

Landeros will combine her knowledge of business best practices with her community building and nonprofit service to build the next chapter of the FWHCC.

“I look forward to working alongside the FWHCC Board of Directors, Fort Worth business community, and the City of Fort Worth to elevate our city’s economic standing to its maximum potential,” said Landeros. “It will be an honor to invest my professional and personal energy to the prosperity of this organization.”
