Organized by

The San Joaquin Valley Manufacturing Alliance (SJVMA) is an organization of the Valley’s manufacturing leaders advancing their industry and creating a world-class workforce at the local level.

Launched by the Fresno Business Council, SJVMA aims to strengthen regional manufacturing, an industry that is responsible for over $19.3 billion of the Valley’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and employs more than 115,000 people. Nationally, the manufacturing industry is responsible for $2.77 trillion in GDP.

SJVMA designs training programs, provides jobs to interns for hands-on experience, educates the public on the benefits of manufacturing careers, addresses legislative issues, and brings local businesses and industry innovators together for the “Valley Made” Manufacturing Summit, an annual manufacturing conference. In 2021, Career Nexus was launched by the Fresno Business Council to further advance the efforts to build a well-trained, diverse workforce for the region’s businesses.

Through all of these efforts supporting our regional manufacturers, SJVMA works to enhance the region’s competitiveness in the global market, in turn multiplying manufacturing’s economic impact on the Valley.
