The Grocery Manufacturers/Food Products Association (GMA/FPA) represents the world's leading food, beverage and consumer products companies. The association promotes sound public policy, champions initiatives that increase productivity and growth and helps to protect the safety and security of the food supply through scientific excellence. The GMA/FPA board of directors is comprised of fifty-two chief executive officers from the Association's member companies. The $2.1 trillion food, beverage and consumer packaged goods industry employs 14 million workers, and contributes over $1 trillion in added value to the nation's economy.
Welcome to GMA/FPA. If we look a little different, that is because on January 1, the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) and the Food Products Association (FPA) joined forces to become the world's preeminent association of the food, beverage, and consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry. Together, GMA and FPA have nearly 200 years of proven experience as the industry's leading authority on supply chain efficiency, public policy advocacy and the safety and security of America's food supply.
Although our name has changed, our steadfast commitment to excellence remains, and the Association now boasts an impressive portfolio of services to better serve our companies. We are in the process of building a new and improved Web site that reflects the mission and goals of the new organization, and that will also serve as an information clearinghouse for CPG companies, policymakers, consumers and the media. In the meantime, you can find the information you are looking for by visiting the current GMA and FPA websites.
Thank you for your interest in GMA/FPA.
