The Faridabad Industries Association popularly known as the FIA was
started way back in 1952 initially by a group of enterprising industrialists. In the year 1965-66 the erstwhile Punjab manufacturing organization was merged with the Faridabad Industries Association to form a larger organization to represent the small medium and large scale industries in this area. Over the efflux of time, the Faridabad Industries Association has become one of the most outspoken and effective Associations in the Northern Region. Its views are listened to with respect by one and all authorities and it is entirely because of the continous support which it gets from its members. The FIA members are contributing nearly 80% of the total turnover and employment in this industrial complex. The FIA is largely a service oriented organization and it its presence in all facets of Industrial activities is being actually felt by its members. The FIA is not only serving the industries but also extends its activities to other areas like Environment, Sports, Cultural, Rural Education etc. It is the main reason for its credibility and increased membership over a period of years.
