Pennant, a trusted manufacturing partner specializing in metal stamping, roll forming, fabrication and assembly for industries that demand precision and reliability, has been a valued PMA member since 2020. Headquartered in Columbus, OH, with four manufacturing facilities across the United States, Pennant provides high-quality, cost-effective solutions for a diverse range of sectors, from heavy-duty trucking and home appliances to solar and utilities.
According to President Chris Highfield, Pennant joined PMA to be part of the industry association and network with fellow members in the metal stamping industry. This connection and the wealth of information provided by PMA has been instrumental in the company’s growth and professional development.
Pennant actively utilizes a wide range of PMA’s resources, including the monthly business conditions report, quarterly operating ratios report and more.
“PMA has a lot of really good data that helps us talk with fellow professionals, and we also use the information to be able to improve upon the performance of our organization,” Chris explains. “The information that PMA provides helps us grow business in all areas.”
PMA events also play a crucial role in fostering connections within the industry.
“ Whether it’s an improvement on AI [or] talking through tariffs again – [we are] able to associate with fellow professionals and share information,” says Chris. “A lot of times we think our problems are unique just to our organizations, but we find out in many cases that it’s a problem that the entire industry looks at.”
