Membership

There are over 400 industrial and transportation company members (60% industrial users, 40% transportation providers). Industrial members are senior executives responsible for transportation/distribution for corporations that are major users of transportation services. Transportation members are senior executives of railroads, motor carriers, water carriers, and rail car leasing companies. Industrial member companies include most manufacturers of agricultural products, chemicals, paper, metals, automobiles, forest products, food, and consumer products.

Membership in NFTA is by invitation only and there are two steps. First, companies proposed for membership must be sponsored by a current member and will be asked to provide an annual report and an overview of their transportation expenses. Secondly, provided the minimum criteria is met, the company's nominee will be recommended to the membership committee by the original sponsoring members. Nominees will be notified of their acceptance promptly. Any current member can sponsor a candidate for membership.

The initiation fee is $50 and currently the annual dues for each member is $475.00 Meeting fees are currently $200.00 and are billed with the hotel charges at each meeting.

If you are interested in joining NFTA or are a current member of NFTA and are interested in sponsoring a company for membership, submit a completed application to George Turner, Executive Director.
