SAMFA Member Meetings Nationally
SAMFA organises two meetings a year in each region. The first is a mid-year event and mini-expo where industry vendors display their technologies to metal finishing operators. The second is a year-end report back and social evening usually held in late November or early December.
Plans for the AGM and mini-expo in the KZN region have now been finalized.
This event will take place on Tuesday, September 7 at the Westville Country Club at 1 Link Road, Westville.
.
The AGM and mini-expo that was planned for this region went off very successfully at the Gillooly's Conference Centre, in Boeing Road West, Bedfordview. on Thursday, August 26.
Thanks to industry vendors, the exhibition tables were fully subscribed and reports received indicated that it was considered to be a rewarding exercise with new business being written on the night, as well as some new member sign-ups.
During the AGM business of the evening, the Gauteng executive committee received the full confidence vote of the members and was returned to serve unchanged.
This very successful meeting and mini expo took place on Wednesday, July 21 at the Fairways Venue, Bellville Golf Club.
The next meeting in the Cape Region will be the year-end social event. Full details will be posted here as soon as they become available.

Vendors are encouraged to make full use of these opportunities to book display space for promotion of their products and services in this industry.
Rates are extremely keen and there is no more economical way of presenting your products to a broad cross section of the metal finishing industry.
SAMFA's initiative of staging 'compact' expos at low cost is designed to deliver the same benefits as tradeshows that cost many times more.
With the support of industry, we aim to build these shows into "must visit" events that become firm fixtures on the calendar of every business involved in or allied to metal finishing.
