FIA was founded in July 2010 by a group of leading food and beverage companies. From our base in Singapore, we seek to enhance the industry’s role as a trusted partner in the development of science-based policy throughout the region. FIA provides an important hub for advocacy and debate. We bring together the food industry’s most senior business leaders to champion initiatives that promote sustainable growth and support regional policies that deliver harmonised results. Our members share common values on food safety, international competitiveness and the delivery of public health outcomes that are relevant to their products. Together, we lend support to local industry groups in the region and reach out to stakeholders who share our common vision. At the heart of FIA’s philosophy lies a belief that the private sector can play a more positive role in civil society if it has a seat at the table. To this end, FIA is committed to building relationships with governments and policy makers – either directly or through existing local industry groups.
