CMA holds national conference to mark 25 years

The Cabinet Makers Association (CMA) reached a major milestone this year and celebrated its two-and-a-half decades of service to the industry with a national conference, held March 8-10 at the Renaissance Hotel in Nashville, Tenn.

The event featured speakers, local plant tours, and networking opportunities.

“Over the past quarter of a century, the CMA has grown to include hundreds of small- to medium-sized cabinet, millwork, and furniture shops across the U.S. and Canada. One hundred and fifty of those members converged in Nashville for this celebratory event,” the CMA said in a statement.

The CMA was incorporated in 1998 by a group of custom cabinetmakers who thought the industry’s smaller shops needed to network and help each other grow profitably. Currently, CMA membership is made up primarily of 20 or fewer employee operations, with the vast majority of those being 1-5 person shops.
