The Stone Fabricator’s Alliance, more commonly known at the SFA, organizes an annual voyage to Italy. The fortunate members invited are exposed to different parts of the stone industry, including quarries, slab production facilities and machinery/tooling manufacturing plants. Stone World had the privilege of going on the trip this year, and Managing Editor Jason Kamery recounted his trip to Editorial Director Jennifer Richinelli on a recent podcast. Here is a summary of what was discussed.

JK: This year the SFA trip went to Northern Italy and visited quite a few different towns where we saw a bunch of different Italian companies. This is something they've been doing since about 2012, I want to say.
