The Pet Food Industry Association of Australia (PFIAA) is the peak industry body representing manufacturers and suppliers of pet food in Australia.

This RFP is informed by PFIAA’s strategic priorities and draws on best‑practice association management models commonly used by national and global industry bodies.
