The Illinois Food Retailers Association (IFRA) has recently merged with the Illinois Retail Merchants Association (IRMA) to create a stronger and more comprehensive organization that aims to improve upon existing programs and offer innovative services to its members. With a successful partnership spanning 35 years, the merger embraces the strengths, experience, and expertise of both organizations, ensuring a commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the grocery industry.
As a result of the merger, a new council called the Illinois Food Council has been established within IRMA, providing specific focus to the grocery industry. This council will advise staff on advocacy issues and work towards developing effective strategies to address the challenges and opportunities faced by the grocery industry. IRMA, as a valuable resource for its members, engages with retailers, policy makers, the media, and the general public to advocate for the success of retail operations in Illinois.
