Membership Levels Attain All-Time High

Membership numbers in NARMS International exceeded all past levels in late 2007 as the member count rose to 571 member companies. The diverse member roster included some 56 international member companies, with 34 from Canada.

With renewals at press time reflecting several consolidations and sales of member companies and normal attrition from non-renewals, a more current roster reflects 278 merchandising service organizations (MSO), 87 independent food brokers (IFBA), 59 event marketer/demo companies, 48 professional installation companies (PIC), 40 manufacturers, four retailers and 47 associate members.
