Looking Forward To 2024

Share this...

As 2023 winds to a close, the Hardwood Manufacturers Association (HMA) is making preparations for our 2024 National Conference and Expo. The much-anticipated event will take place Monday–Wednesday, March 25–27, at The Charleston Place Hotel in Charleston, South Carolina. And if you’re an HMA member, industry supplier, or a Hardwood industry stakeholder, then you’re invited and encouraged to attend! This year’s theme is Pathways to Success and our lineup of presenters and sessions will provide educational opportunities for all—from your company’s senior management to our industry’s next generation of leaders.

Our Opening Reception and Expo on Monday, March 25, will kick off HMA’s signature event with the industry’s premiere networking opportunity. Enjoy comradery with your peers and meet with vendors, while refreshments flow and appetizer stations nourish.

And we’ll give you one spoiler alert for now. On the agenda is a virtual tour of NWH’s facility in Longview, Washington. See how sawmilling is in the Pacific Northwest, get a close-up look of their operations, and experience a birds-eye view of an Alder forest.

Get all the NatCon details, take care of your registration, and book your accommodations at www.HMAmembers.org.

A Year-End Thank You

Before we say goodbye to 2023, HMA staff would like to thank the 25 companies that have gone the extra mile and supported HMA’s promotional and educational efforts. Your contributions enabled HMA to influence homeowners through editorial and social media content, educate the design/build community via CEUs, and position American Hardwoods™ as the natural choice for today’s homes and commercial spaces.
