Launch of the International Federation of Starch Associations
The Starch associations of China, Europe, Mexico, Russia, Turkey and the US have joint forces to create the International Federation of Starch Associations (IFSA). The Federation will promote robust industry dialogue and coordination and the sharing of resources on policy advocacy.
Shared policy priorities include health & nutrition, workplace safety, sustainability, product safety and environmental affairs, as well as the coordination of our efforts to communicate on the benefits of starch-based products. IFSA will also aim to act as one voice towards international stakeholders such as the WHO and CODEX.
“We are delighted with the launch of this Federation, and look forward to working together with our colleagues from across the globe on the exciting innovations in our industry, as well as the shared challenges we face,” says Jamie Fortescue, Managing Director of Starch Europe.
