The 'Infant and Dietetic Foods Association' becomes the 'British Specialist Nutrition Association'. May 2010

The 'Infant and Dietetic Foods Association' (IDFA Ltd.) has changed its name to the 'British Specialist Nutrition Association Ltd.' (BSNA Ltd). As the pre-eminent dietetic Trade Association in this country, we continue to represent the manufacturers of specialist dietetic foods organised in the following key specialist sectors: sports foods, gluten-free foods, slimming foods, medical Foods, and foods for infants and young children. Over the past five years, however, the balance of our membership and our partnerships with linked organisations has evolved to have two important elements: infant and young children nutrition on one side and adult specialist nutrition on the other. Because of this change in membership and emphasis we have chosen a new name for our organisation which more accurately reflects these developments.
