National Coffee Association Membership

Advocacy

NCA serves as the leading voice of the U.S. coffee industry in Washington and, with the collective support of our members, advocates on behalf of the entire industry. This work is reflected in our motto: We Serve Coffee. 

Networking 

The NCA Convention provides unmatched networking with coffee leaders and decision makers from across the supply chain. Educational sessions focus on topics such as economic forecasts, consumer trends, and supply chain logistics.  

Market Research 

Bi-annually, NCA publishes National Coffee Data Trends (NCDT), the longest-running study on U.S. coffee consumption, beverage preferences, and consumer behavior. NCA consumer research helps roasters, retailers, suppliers, and brands understand the market and make data-driven business decisions. 

Industry Resources 

In collaboration with leading food quality, safety, regulatory, and legal experts, NCA develops sought-after technical resources that provide NCA members with coffee-specific guidance on a variety of issues related to the regulatory and operating environment.

All full-time employees of NCA member companies can access member benefits, bringing value to the company as a whole and to each individual who takes advantage of NCA resources.  

NCA membership can provide significant savings for companies that attend the NCA Convention or purchase NCDT market research. Members save up to $730 per person on NCA Convention registration and receive 83% off the retail price of NCDT reports. 

Companies often join NCA for access to industry resources, developed in collaboration with leading food quality, safety, regulatory, and legal experts. Obtaining this level of expertise and guidance can be costly and time-consuming, particularly for smaller organizations. These resources keep NCA members informed about regulatory updates and issues that affect their business operations.

When one considers the cost of missing out on an important business partnership, market shift, or regulatory update, the true value of NCA membership becomes apparent.
