If you have ever wondered what lobbying is all about, now is your chance to find out! The primary purpose of the Georgia Food Industry Association is legislative representation on behalf of its members. As part of GFIA’s legislative grassroots efforts, the association began hosting an annual Capitol Day. Participants gain firsthand knowledge of the legislative process and learn how GFIA works to protect industry interests on a daily basis. Attendees are also treated to lunch and have the opportunity to meet their locally elected officials.
