The Thrissur Management Association (TMA) was established in 1990 with the goal of fostering a professional managerial ethos in the region. Soon after its inception, TMA sought and obtained affiliation with the All India Management Association (AIMA), thereby becoming part of the network of Local Management Associations (LMAs) that operate under AIMA across India.
From the beginning, TMA has been deeply rooted in the vibrant entrepreneurial spirit of Thrissur. Renowned for its rich cultural heritage, Thrissur has also made significant contributions to entrepreneurship, particularly in the fields of finance, gold jewellery, and textile retail. The district has produced some of Kerala’s most successful and renowned entrepreneurs, who have achieved prominence nationally and internationally.
