Officials from MFG.com announce a strategic partnership with the National Tooling and Machining Association (NTMA), with the objective of the partnership is to accelerate reshoring and job creation in the United States.

MFG.com and NTMA share a common vision to see a revitalized and strong job shop market in the United States. By working together, MFG.com and NTMA will use their complimentary assets and credible voices to evangelize the benefits of reshoring, hosting online and offline events where members can meet OEM’s wanting to reshore, provide thought leadership, best practices, and trend data.

“We are at a critical moment in time for America manufacturing,” says Roger Atkins, chairman of the board, of NTMA. “There is tremendous momentum in the market right now; it is incumbent upon all of us, and especially the association representing job shops in America to make sure the momentum continues, is sustainable and that all of our members benefit from this rising tide. MFG.com is by far the largest and most credible online marketplace for the manufacturing industry and has a lot of resources and connections to bring to bear in this fight for America’s economic future. The leadership at MFG.com is equally as passionate and dedicated as we are at NTMA about doing our parts to create a vibrant and sustainable job shop market in America.”

We are pleased to support NTMA and its’ members to help them capitalize on the strong demand for machining and die/mold making services in the U.S,” states Mitch Free, founder & CEO of MFG.com. “I began my career as a machinist and completed a tool and die apprenticeship program. Needless to say, helping the success of job shops in America is something I am passionate about as they are the engine of our economy and the key to the quality of life we enjoy as Americans.”
