The Namibian Association of Metal Fabrication (NAMF) is a voluntary association that exists to represent, promote and grow the interests of its members, legally involved in the value chain of Namibia’s metal fabrication industry. The association is a permanent platform for the metal fabrication industry as a result of the November 2016 launch of the 10 key sectors growth strategies under Namibia’s Growth@Home industrialisation strategy by the then Minister of Industrialisation, Trade and SME Development, Hon. Immanuel Ngatjizeko . The growth strategy implementation for the metal fabrication industry resulted in the setting up of a Steering Committee that developed the 2017 Annual Operation Plan (AOP), advocating for the the establishment of a sector–specific association for the metal fabrication industry.
