New Netherlands Group Joins European Association
FEATURE
Delegates from Germany, France, Spain and the United Kingdom welcomed the Netherlands at the September 2013 assembly of European Fastener Distributors Association in Berlin.
NEVIB was recently formed as a fastener importer and distributor association of the Netherlands.
NEVIB president Robert Klaasen said the Dutch association has 14 members representing around 90% of the country’s fastener importers.
NEVIB will become an EFDA member in 2014, joining Germany’s FDS, France’s Prismefix, Spain’s ADEFI and the UK’s BAFD.
The meeting also drew the first two members of MEFDA – “More EFDA” – which was created for fastener importers and distributors from countries in which there is currently no national association. MEFDA can represent their interests in European trade and regulatory issues. Representatives of the two initial member companies, Heco-Nordiska of Sweden and Marcopol of Poland spoke about access to information on European regulatory issues.
EFDA president Volker Lederer welcomed NEVIB and MEFDA. The delegates meeting was “an important step for the further development of our European organization.”
