ABA president and CEO Robb MacKie to join NAM's Council of Manufacturing Associations board
The American Bakers Association (ABA) and the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) announced that ABA president and CEO Robb MacKie will join the board of the NAM’s Council of Manufacturing Associations (CMA). Kimberly Korbel, executive director of the American Wire Producers Association, will serve as chair, and Anne Forristall Luke, president and CEO of the U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association, will serve as vice chair. Made up of more than 260 industry-specific manufacturing associations, the CMA is a powerful assembly of manufacturers and a vital arm of the NAM.
“I am honored to be selected to serve on the CMA Board. I look forward to working with an incredibly talented group dedicated to promoting manufacturing—including baking,” said MacKie. “One of the core values ABA brings to its members is being heavily involved with esteemed and well-aligned organizations such as NAM-CMA. The opportunity to help guide this organization and tell the story of manufacturing through the baking industry lens is tremendous.”
