NATURAL FIBRE CONNECT (NFC)

The SFA is a co-host of the annual NFC Conference, collaborating with partners in the alpaca, cashmere, mohair and wool industries. Together, our mission is to shine a light on the herders' perspective and build consensus around the common challenges facing the natural fibre sector. The NFC 2025 event was held in Edinburgh, UK, on the 22nd & 23rd of September. Find out more about this year's conference by reading the summary article below.
