ZAM Objectives

The Zambia Association of Manufacturers was formed primarily for the following objectives:

The aim of the association is to keep these objectives and achievements constantly before the public. It also aims to amalgamate entirely into partnership or into any other arrangement for union of interest, cooperation, joint venture, or reciprocal concession with any business entity, association, society or company engaged in any business or collaboration directly or indirectly connected to industry or business.

To fulfil this ZAM work closely with the Zambia Association of Chambers of Commerce and Industry (ZACCI), an organization incorporating national local chambers of Commerce and other corporate business organization as well as corporate companies. ZAM also pioneered the formation of the Zambia Business Forum (ZBF) and is one of its first members. The objective was to develop a financially sustainable ZBF that influences, with consolidated private sector input on cross cutting issues, the GRZ reform policy for private sector led economic growth and employment creation.
