The Greater Muskogee Manufacturers Alliance (GMMA) was created in July 2008, by manufacturers to have a forum specific to their industry.
GMMA provides an opportunity for area manufacturers to build their networks, learn from each other’s experiences, hear from subject matter experts, and deliver a unified voice for the local manufacturing community.
100% manufacturer driven, GMMA holds quarterly meetings with topics chosen by a consensus of the membership. Most meetings are held at member facilities and are followed by plant tours, allowing members to benchmark themselves and learn best practices.
Port staff support GMMA by coordinating meetings, identifying speakers, and facilitating communication for the group.
