The Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA) announced the creation of a new Pet Food Council, joining the Association's existing five industry Councils including Bakery, Beverage, Dairy, Meat and Prepared Foods. FPSA Councils form the backbone of the Association with each group having representation on the Board of Directors and helping to guide all programs to that they are relevant for all major industry segments.
"This decision is the result of over two years of research into industry trends, attendance growth at PROCESS EXPO and focus groups of FPSA members," said Jarrod McCarroll, Chairman of the Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA) and President of Weber, Inc. "Based on robust growth in this dynamic segment, the FPSA Board of Directors unanimously voted to create our first new Council in the last twelve years and we are very excited about it. This new Council will meet over the coming months with the objective of electing their leadership and deciding what they want to achieve."
