NGMA President letter

The National Greenhouse Manufacturers Association (NGMA) represents and advances the interests of the greenhouse industry through education, networking, and communication. We are a trade organization that combines professionals who manufacture and supply greenhouse structures, as well as the components that supply greenhouse users with the absolute best there is to offer. The NGMA membership is a comprehensive and synergistic gathering of the most experienced and knowledgeable manufacturers and suppliers in the industry.

2022 has seen a return to normalcy for the NGMA and its membership and allowed us to resume our annual in person meeting this year in Atlantic Beach, Florida. The meeting was well attended and allowed for a great exchange of knowledge between seasoned membership and a great contingent of new members and representatives. Discussion revolved around concerns with supply chain, proliferation of CEA, industry growth and trends, and code concerns about greenhouse efficiency and construction, among many others.

The NGMA has always been and continues to be poised to meet the challenges brought forth by the horticultural industry. The strength of our organization is the collective knowledge of its membership. I believe we offer a fair and open forum for discussion and networking. I want to personally thank the NGMA membership for their participation and vitality. I also would like to offer an invitation to those who are interested in the NGMA to visit our website at www.ngma.com, and view the “Why join the National Greenhouse Manufacturers Association?” video or please reach out to us at membership@ngma.com.
