Founded in 1949, the Smaller Manufactures Association of Connecticut, Inc. serves to promote the cause of small manufacturing firms in all facets of their business organizations. In today's economy, the SMA provides resources to help Connecticut's smaller manufacturers thrive. The major objective of the Association is to facilitate communications between its members for their mutual benefit.

This goal is accomplished through monthly dinner meetings and direct communication with our members. The Association, recognizing it has a commitment to the community, spearheads the annual School to Career Manufacturing Symposium that "plants the manufacturing seed" with the region's youth in grades 6 - 12. Additionally, the Association recognizes a "student of the month" at its monthly dinner meeting and participates in awards programs at the region's high schools.

This website has been designed to introduce you to the Association and its members.
