KAM members are categorised into 14 sectors, 12 of which are in processing and value addition while the other two offer essential services to enhance formal industry. Sub-sectors are defined by the type of raw materials companies import or the products they manufacture.
This way, members in a particular sector form a cohesive group of competitors but with common issues of concern, hence the need to prepare common policy positions for joint advocacy and negotiation with relevant government institutions in addressing issues of grave concern.
