BOARD OF TRUSTEES

The Georgia Food Industry Education Foundation (GFIEF) has the primary focus of supporting GFIA’s educational agenda. The Foundation’s Board of Trustees is made up of key individuals representing our member companies from the food industry. This group of retailers, wholesalers and suppliers oversees the Foundation’s scholarship program, educational seminars, industry training programs and the Eat at Home Georgia program.

The Trustees elect leadership each year through an application process, ensuring that Foundation leadership is strong and continues to provide value to GFIA members.
