NAM to Lead Coordination and Production of Manufacturing Day

Washington, D.C., October 28, 2016 – The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) and the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association, International (FMA) today announced that the NAM will assume day-to-day coordination of the Manufacturing Day brand and will lead the production of all Manufacturing Day events. With more than 2,700 events held and more than 400,000 participants in 2016, Manufacturing Day celebrates modern manufacturing as manufacturers across the country open their doors to students, parents and teachers with the goal of strengthening the public perception of modern manufacturing. By introducing young people to fulfilling, technology-driven jobs with above-average salaries, we can motivate students to pursue manufacturing careers.
As the nation’s largest manufacturing association representing small, medium-sized and large manufacturers in every industrial sector across all 50 states, the NAM has the partnerships, resources and vision to lead the initiative forward.
