FABTECH, the largest event in North America for the metal forming, fabricating, welding, and finishing industries, is set to introduce a new North American Job Shop Pavilion at its 2025 event. This dedicated pavilion will provide job shops and contract manufacturers with an exclusive opportunity to connect directly with manufacturers looking for high-quality, specialized parts and services.
The new pavilion is designed to foster meaningful networking opportunities for job shops, giving them a platform to meet with potential customers and explore new business opportunities. It will also serve as a hub for manufacturers in need of custom components, making it easier for them to find trusted partners to meet their production requirements.
“Job shops and contract manufacturers are essential to the success of the modern manufacturing supply chain,” said Tracy Garcia, CEM, FABTECH group director at SME. “By creating this dedicated space on the show floor, we are offering them the opportunity to showcase their capabilities and build new relationships with manufacturers who require their expertise. It’s a win-win for both sides.”
The North American Job Shop Pavilion will feature a diverse array of service providers. Visitors to the pavilion will be able to engage with job shops and contract manufacturers who offer solutions tailored to a range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical devices, consumer products, and more.
FABTECH 2025 is expected to draw thousands of industry professionals from around the world, making it the premier event for networking and discovering the latest technological advancements in the industry. The addition of the pavilion is expected to further elevate the event’s role as a key resource for those looking to find new solutions, expand their supplier networks, and stay ahead of emerging industry trends.
FABTECH 2025 will take place from September 8-11 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. Registration for the event opens in March. Interested in exhibiting in the North American Job Shop Pavilion, click here.
