NGFA’s committees are the backbone of the Association. Employees of NGFA member companies are selected to serve on committees to inform and shape the policies and priorities of the NGFA. View pages for each NGFA committee below.

Background: In November 2023, NGFA announced changes to its committee structure unanimously approved by the Board of Directors following recommendations from the NGFA Committee Structure Task Force. The NGFA Bylaws stipulate that there be an Arbitration Appeals Committee and a Trade Rules Committee. In addition, the Bylaws empower the NGFA chairman to appoint “any committee considered necessary to the conduct of the business of the corporation.” The NGFA chairman also is authorized to appoint subcommittees that report directly to their parent committees. For additional information, see how the committees are structured and run.
