History of the Bay Area Manufacturers Association
The Pinellas Manufacturers Association was formed with a small group of 10 industries in the Tyrone Industrial Park area of St Petersburg in 1961. Later, the organization was renamed the Bay Area Manufacturers Association. In the last 60 years, BAMA has supported manufacturing in our area and promotes economic development in our region.
Last Year to mark this occasion, we celebrated local companies who have supported BAMA through the years. These are our 60 companies for 60 years!
