Our Association

We are Florida's only hospitality association that represents the food service, lodging and tourism industries. We help professionals develop their skills and further their careers by providing access to unique and relevant training, education and exclusive member services. We are Florida's watchdogs that monitor state-wide legislative initiatives that could potentially harm our industry. Our Team of professionals, which includes experts from Florida's regulatory agencies, provide support, guidance and leadership to 27 local member chapters.

Our independent, non-profit association was created to provide leadership for the protection, promotion, and education of our industry. Our strategic plan calls for continued work in the areas of advocacy, diversity, education, and organizational excellence.
