CKMA Events Team

CKMA is a membership group of manufacturing businesses centred on a key manufacturing cluster of small and medium sized manufacturing firms in and around West Yorkshire.

We are an active group of local manufacturers who meet together to share best practice, experience and knowledge, bring together the local supply chain and encourage collaborative working. With a steering group drawn from our rich pool of successful local manufacturing business leaders, actively supported by national and local business support organisations we focus on what is current and relevant on behalf of our members.

Our purpose is to promote continuous business improvement in all its forms in manufacturing across West Yorkshire and beyond. We do this through initiatives which attract and engage with talent, support effective skills training, drive productivity and encourage resilient local supply chains in order to underpin the region’s economy and manufacturing reputation in a global marketplace.
