| The Missouri Grocers Association (MGA), is a non-profit,
state wide, organization representing over 1300 members; retailers,
wholesalers, distributors, brokers, suppliers, vendors and manufacturers,
that constitute the grocery industry in the State of Missouri.
The state industry employs some 60,000 Missourians and generates
nearly 10 billion dollars in annualized retail sales.
MGA members are represented
in all areas of government, from promoting or opposing legislation
to acting
on members’ behalf in government
programs such as WIC, EBT, Work Comp, Unemployment Insurance,
Food Codes and Taxation.
MGA works closely at the federal level with national organizations
such as National Grocers Association (NGA), Food Marketing Institute
(FMI), and the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS).
MGA’s leadership in national issues such as Voluntary Country
of Origin Labeling, Estate “Death” Tax Repeal, and
