EFDA represents the interests of fastener distributors at European and global level. We bring together active and established national associations and a growing number of independent distributors in other European countries. In total 170 innovative and top-performing associates have a massive combined inventory of fasteners and other C-Parts, collective sales of more than 4 billion Euros and affiliates and trading partners across the globe.

EFDA’s mission is to defend free trade and the international competitiveness of our members. We strongly believe that competitiveness on a global scale is a precondition for European prosperity and that regulation, while balancing unfair behavior, must not restrict the capabilities of fastener distributors to support a wide spectrum of strategic European industry sectors with quality assured products and advanced logistics.

Andreas Bertagggia, President
