About NPFDA

NPFDA’s Mission:

To promote the Protein and Food Distributors, Processors, and Allied industries by bringing them together and providing forums to foster long-term business relationships.

NPFDA provides networking opportunities where members can exchange ideas and discuss challenges and opportunities facing the protein and food industries.


History

NPFDA has been in existence since 1967 and is constantly growing and changing to meet it’s member's needs. NPFDA was started by a group of poultry & food distributors who recognized a true need for an organization able to deal with the problems of the distribution segment of the industry.

Within the course of a year, NPFDA saw the need to expand membership with broad objectives structured to embody all segments of the industry and incorporate a "team" concept.

In 2021, the NPFDA membership voted to become the National Protein and Food Distributors Association.  This change better reflects the varied business interests of our members.  In addition, we are more inclusive of all segments of the protein industry.
