Fastened Together: Why You Should Join the Southwestern Fastener Association

The fastener industry is built on relationships - strong connections that hold everything together, both literally and figuratively. At its core, it is not just about the products we make but the people who make them possible and that same spirit of connection is what the Southwestern Fastener Association (SFA) is all about.

SFA is not just an organization but rather a community. It is where manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and representatives from across the Southwest come together to share knowledge, build partnerships, and form relationships.

One of the best parts about SFA is the ability to learn from others who truly understand this industry. Members are able to benefit through workshops, plant tours, and discussion. The collective knowledge shared among members helps them gain firsthand exposure to innovations that help their businesses stay strong and adaptable in an ever-changing market.

SFA also creates space for members to connect beyond their day-to-day work with events such as golf tournaments, clay shoots, distributor dinners, and the annual conference that provides opportunities to meet new people, exchange ideas, and strengthen partnerships. The opportunities at SFA bring about real friendships and connections that turn into mentorships, collaborations, and partnerships.

But it is not just about business, SFA takes pride in giving back to the community. Members actively support scholarships, canned food drives, toy drives during the holiday, and programs like Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This shows you the members of SFA have heart and deeply care about each other and the communities they live in as they give their time and resources to make a difference. SFA is not just about fasteners, it is about fastening people together through trust, service and community.

If you are ready to grow, learn, and get connected, there is a place for you in the Southwestern Fastener Association. Together, we are building something strong that lasts. Membership is now open and we hope you will join us!
