Association History
Founded in 1885 by a progressive group of canners, the Associated New York State Food Processors is the oldest statewide food processing trade association in the United States.
As the market, needs, and goals of the industry have changed over the years, the association's name changed from the New York Canned Goods Packers Association to the New York Canners (1912), the Association of New York Canners (1922), and until 1968 was called the New York State Canners and Freezers.
The membership was broadened to include active membership from the New York Association of Wine Producers in 1981 and the New York State Association of Refrigerated Warehouses in 1984.
We now represent a major portion of the state processed food industry, and our list of processors is impressive, including that of fruits, vegetables, wine, and food specialty items.
