Mission and programs · 2024

• OUR MOST POPULAR SERVICE IS OUR INFORMATIONAL SERVICES. IN TODAY'S RAPIDLY CHANGING REGULATORY WORLD, OPERATORS NEED TO STAY INFORMED IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH NEW LAWS AND REGULATIONS. OUR MEMBERS CAN CALL US AND ASK US ANY LEGAL OR REGULATORY QUESTION AND WE WILL RESEARCH THE ANSWER FOR THEM. ADDITIONALLY, WE SEND OUT ALERTS, NEWSLETTERS AND E-NEWSLETTERS WITH ANY PERTINENT INFORMATION THAT THEY SHOULD KNOW IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH A NEW LAW OR REGULATION. THE NEW ENGLAND FOOD SHOW IS OUR BIGGEST EVENT. IT IS PRODUCED AND OWNED BY OUR PARTNER, THE NATIONAL RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION. THERE IS APPROXIMATELY 50,000 SQUARE FEET OF EXHIBITOR SPACE. THERE ARE CHEF DEMOS, EDUCATIONAL SEMINARS, AND KEYNOTE SPEAKERS. ABOUT 10,000 ATTENDEES WILL VISIT THE SHOW OVER A THREE DAY PERIOD TO SEE THE VERY LATEST IN FOOD AND BEVERAGE PRODUCTS, EQUIPMENT, TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICES. GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS USES A GREAT DEAL OF OUR RESOURCES. THERE ARE SO MANY BILLS THAT ARE PROPOSED IN A YEAR THAT COULD HURT OR HELP THE INDUSTRY. OUR JOB IS TWOFOLD: TO EDUCATE THE LEGISLATORS AND TO EDUCATE OUR MEMBERS. IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THE LEGISLATORS BE AWARE OF THE EFFECTS OF THEIR LEGISLATION. WE DO THIS BY MEETING WITH THEM, TESTIFYING BEFORE COMMITTEES, SENDING LETTERS AND EMAILS AND ACTIVATING OUR STRONG GRASS ROOTS BODY WHICH IS OUR MEMBERSHIP. IN ORDER TO DO THIS, WE NEED TO KEEP OUR MEMBERS INFORMED. WE DO THIS THROUGH OUR NEWSLETTERS, THROUGH ALERTS, PERSONAL CONTACTS AND WE EVEN HOST A LOBBY DAY. GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS CONTINUES TO BECOME MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
