The Northeast Dairy Association, Inc. was formed for the dedication to the growth and advancement of the dairy food industry.
Our Association consists of over 150 member companies including international businesses as well as small, family owned companies, all of whom distribute goods and services to the dairy industry.
The members of the Northeast Dairy Association, Inc. are administered by a Board of Directors elected bi-annually from the general membership. Director meetings are held three times a year, as well as during the annual meeting, held at the convention each year. The members are governed by by-laws that provide specific direction and guidelines in compliance with association business law.

| Throughout the year, NDA members take advantage of the many activities and programs sponsored by New York State Dairy Foods, Inc. (NYSDFI) giving members an opportunity to meet and socialize with sales prospects and customers from all facets of the dairy industry. |
