INDIANA’S LEADING ADVOCATE FOR INDUSTRY
Formed in 1901, the Indiana Manufacturers Association is the second oldest manufacturers association in the country and the only trade association in Indiana that exclusively focuses on manufacturing. We are dedicated to advocating for a business climate that creates, protects, and promotes a thriving manufacturing community and quality manufacturing jobs in Indiana.
INDIANA MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION 1901- 2026
Celebrating 125 Years of Serving Indiana Manufacturers
On December 8, 1901, the IMA was originally founded at the Indiana Manufacturers' and Shippers' Association with a mission to advocate for the state's burgeoning manufacturing sector against a backdrop of labor unrest and increasing calls for government regulation. Over the past 125 years, the IMA has stayed true to the original mission of our founders, being Indiana's Leading Advocate for Industry.
We invite you to explore the IMA's history by scrolling through our historical timeline celebrating IMA's amazing journey. We'll be celebrating this milestone all year long, so you'll see our 125 Year Celebration Logo at events, in publications and on social media. Please join us in celebrating you - our members - who have made IMA what it is today
Aas our motto says "What Indiana Makes, Makes Indiana."
