Powering Every Day
The consumer packaged goods industry is home to some of the most iconic brands in the world. It is our privilege to positively impact the lives of every American, every day.
Our Strategic Priorities
We are in the process of reimagining the GMA of the future, from our website to a bold new agenda that empowers the industry to grow and thrive. Here are our priorities.
Champion Smart Regulation
We advocate for rational, informed, uniform regulatory frameworks that maintain affordability, promote choice and build consumer trust across the sectors we represent, from household products to food and beverage.
Enhance Packaging Sustainability
The industry plays a crucial role in creating a more sustainable future by reducing packaging material, increasing recyclability and manufacturing with recycled content. We aim to leverage our expertise and innovations to galvanize stakeholders and drive needed solutions.
Build Trust in Consumer Packaged Goods
We promote our industry’s commitment to providing consumers with safe, trustworthy, reliable products and to sharing necessary information about these products, shaping a more informed, transparent environment.
Create Frictionless Supply Chains
We account for one-fifth of all freight shipping in the United States, making the CPG industry a key stakeholder – and expert voice – on supply chain issues. We work to remove barriers to providing American consumers the affordable products they rely on every day.
