PFMA and PCSC Member Benefits
All retailers who sell food in Pennsylvania are eligible to join the Pennsylvania Food Merchants Association and the Pennsylvania Convenience Store Council. Our members enjoy the following benefits:
Advocacy
PFMA and PCSC's Government Relations Team represents the food industry at the state capitol, making certain that legislators understand the food industry's point of view on legislative issues.
Business Services
The Association operates several business subsidiaries that provide a variety of services to retailers. Members who utilize PFMA and PCSC business services help the Association, since revenue generated from the business subsidiaries helps fund member service programs.
Endorsed Services
PFMA and PCSC partner with businesses to provide services to members. Currently, the Association partners with companies specializing in insurance, financial services and utility service providers.
Programs
The Association offers programs and seminars to assist retailers and their employees. PFMA and PCSC members make sure they are in compliance with pricing accuracy through the Scanning Certification Program. In addition, our seminars bring nationally recognized experts and training specialists to provide workshops on current industry topics.
Publications
PFMA and PCSC members have access to industry regulations, legislation, trends and events through our monthly newsletter — Spectrum, and through GC Publishing's newspaper, The Food Industry Advisor.
