Member Resources

Thank you for your interest in Food Trade Sustainability Leadership Association (FTSLA). A diverse group of twenty-five companies—committed to advancing environmental and social responsibility in the organic industry—have recently come together to launch this pioneering new business association!

We recognize that concern about the environmental impacts of the food industry is fueling growing consumer demand for sustainably produced products. The unprecedented scale of global climate change combined with the increasing demand and rising cost of natural resources highlight the number of pressing challenges facing the food industry.

During these challenging times, we believe it is critical for the organic food trade to have a place to go to exchange ideas and work toward solutions to shared sustainability challenges.

The mission of the FTSLA is to provide a hub for businesses to network, share best practices and receive technical assistance. Through our combined membership we are able to provide valuable educational programs on a variety of topics, publish resource guides and tool kits, and provide valuable networking events.
