SITA keeps me informed! As an international SITA member, I'm not always able to attend meetings and major events, but SITA continually sends information and links to various informational sources, studies, news stories and articles to keep me abreast of what's happening in the US' 'world of cheer.'

SITA is a wonderful business-to-business trade organization that has strengthened the spirit industry by fostering open communication and cooperation. The camaraderie and sharing of industry information between members has helped COA stay on top of important issues facing our industry.
