Omar Nashashibi, co-founder of The Franklin Partnership and a lobbyist representing manufacturing trade associations, joins The Fabricator Podcast to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing sheet metal fabricators and other manufacturers in the current political climate.
He emphasizes the importance of workforce development, stable tax policies, and understanding government regulations. Nashashibi also discusses the impact of tariffs, the need for education and advocacy on behalf of manufacturers, and the role of government incentives in promoting profitability and viability. He encourages manufacturers to stay informed, work with trade associations, and take advantage of available resources and opportunities.
At the top, the guys call-back a reference Omar made to the movie "Tommy Boy" and how it depicts sheet metal stamping at Callahan Auto. It led to a conversation about other movies set in manufacturing and fabricating facilities, like "Mr. Mom" with Michael Keaton, "Nobody" with Bob Odenkirk, and "Fatman" with Mel Gibson.
This episode was recorded on location at the 2024 FMA Annual Meeting in Clearwater, Fla.
