About Us
Learn about the Association of Food Industries and how to become a member.



The Association of Food Industries is a trade association serving the food import trade. AFI is committed to developing programs that facilitate the business of its member companies, encourage free and fair trade and foster compliance with United States laws and regulations for the food industry.

AFI’s Objectives

• To foster international trade and commerce in food products.
• To represent the interests of overseas suppliers and U.S. importers before the U.S. Congress and agencies of the U.S. government.
• To promote cooperation among suppliers and importers.
• To settle commercial disputes by arbitration.
• To coordinate promotional activities.
• To provide statistical information.

AFI AGENT PROGRAM
AFI offers, at no extra cost to its overseas members, an Agent Program for FDA Registration. The Association of Food Industries can serve as your U.S. agent with regard to this provision of the bioterrorism regulations. You will not have any conflict among current customers as we are an independent organization specializing in U.S. food imports. AFI, which has served the U.S. food industry since 1906, will work with you to ensure the correct information is supplied to FDA and timely updates are made when necessary.
