Partnerships

FIBR believes in Partnerships. Partnerships lead to collaborations that serve not only FIBR's members, but the larger food processing community. As a small non-profit organization, FIBR has found that these Partnerships not only create great relations among other groups and organizations, but help FIBR achieve many goals and provide programs that otherwise would not be possible.
