Why be a member of Nevada Restaurant Association?
Founded in 1982, the Nevada Restaurant Association (NvRA) is the leading business association serving the needs of food service operators in Nevada. Its sole mission is to promote, protect and educate Nevada’s restaurant industry. Membership with Nevada Restaurant Association offers a wide variety of products, services and support designed to provide a “one-stop-shop” for restaurateurs.
NvRA SAVES YOU MONEY. The association offers many cost saving benefits to improve your bottom line. For example, the NvRA has an exclusive healthcare benefits program, no-risk worker's compensation, low rate credit card processing, discounted music licensing and an easy-to-use e-mail marketing software program - just to name a few.
NvRA FIGHTS FOR YOU ON CAPITOL HILL. NvRA spends tens of thousands of dollars each year lobbying for pro-restaurant legislation. We are continuously reaching out to elected officials and actively engaging in issues that matter most to the restaurant industry. Just recently, the NvRA battled to eliminate the tip pooling initiative, soda tax, taxes on plastic bags, increases to the state liquor tax and modified business tax and won compromises on the proposed health permit fee increases.
NvRA EDUCATES YOU. NvRA offers training and services for TAM cards, ServSafe food safety and management training, expedited health cards, finger printing, OSHA regulations, and other industry training materials that can be easily customized to meet your company’s compliance needs.
NvRA KEEPS YOU IN-THE-KNOW. Staff and volunteers work tirelessly to keep members educated on new regulations, industry alerts, proposed laws and restaurant trends. The NvRA services Nevada’s operators with integrity and is dedicated to providing the very best resources available.
NvRA HELPS SHOWCASE YOUR BUSINESS. NvRA provides opportunity to promote your business through local events including the Las Vegas International Bar & Restaurant Show, PAC, Epicurean Affair and the Culinary Excellence Awards Gala. We also offer additional advertising options through our bi-weekly e-newsletter What’s on the Table? and NvRA’s Vendor Values program.
NvRA KEEPS YOU CONNECTED. The association provides a communication network for Nevada’s operators, so you never “operate alone.” Converse with other industry professionals at association mixers, on our website, Facebook, and Twitter. NvRA offers an array of sources and opportunities for its members to keep in touch.
