25 Anniversary
The Iberian Association of Continuous Label Manufacturers, AIFEC, celebrates its 25th anniversary. Founded in 1999, AIFEC has its roots in the Association of Label Manufacturers (AFE). Thanks to the vision of Luis Gamundi, who created AFE, which later in 1999 was refounded by Iban Cid and José Merce under the name of the National Association of Label Manufacturers (ANFEC). In 2018, ANFEC became AIFEC, opening its doors to label companies in Portugal, and consolidating itself as the Iberian Association of Continuous Label Manufacturers, until today.
With more than 160 associates, AIFEC has become a benchmark for the sector.
AIFEC promotes continuous cooperation, development and professionalization of companies in the label sector. It offers its associates the opportunity to exchange knowledge, improve production processes and promote their companies and products through various communication channels.
