AAFA deepens relationship with Haitian industry association
02/05/2018
A memorandum of understanding was signed by the two parties ahead of a conference dedicated to supply chain innovation which AAFA organised in Washington at the end of April.
“Haiti is a special partner in the global apparel and footwear value chain and continues to inspire our industry as we formalise the relationship with the Association of Industries of Haiti,” said Rick Helfenbein, president and CEO of AAFA. “After years of hardship, the business is finally growing again, and this is a very important time for our association to join in this international partnership.”
For his part, Georges Sassine, president of ADIH, said: “Partnering with AAFA is critically important to strengthen the longstanding ties between US companies and Haiti’s manufacturing industry to promote mutually sustainable economic benefits.”
