Why I love the Georgia Manufacturing Alliance:

              

Atlanta, GA The Georgia Manufacturing Alliance (GMA) experienced unprecedented growth in the first half of 2017 surpassing the expectations of founder, Jason Moss.   With the focus on bringing businesses and manufacturing back to the U.S., Georgia has seen a renewed excitement in the manufacturing community.


We started GMA at the height of the recession in 2008,†said Mr. Moss was a difficult start, but I saw a great need for an organization that would help support the manufacturers in our state.  Georgia has been ranked for the last four years as the number one state in which to do business in large part because of the infrastructure, ports, and transportation services that we have available.   This framework provides local and global access to our state, which makes us uniquely positioned to take advantage of the shift to bring manufacturing back to the U.S.S.

As we reflect on the first half of this year, we are very thankful for everyone who has partnered with us to bring about this success, as stated Mr. Moss at the GMA Advisory Board Meeting. Our main objective is to provide our manufacturers, suppliers, and service industries the resources they need to help make their businesses successful.
