WHAT DOES THE ASSOCIATION OFFER ITS MEMBERS

The NBVA acts as the central voice and watch-dog for the Bulk Vending Industry:

We sponsor an Annual Convention each spring at which the leading manufacturers and suppliers of bulk vending machines and products display their merchandise. We conduct seminars and workshops to discuss current industry problems and interchange ideas. We employ informed and experienced Counsel who are available to advise our members on industry problems and who regularly prepare bulletins of current interest.

We annually furnish a Membership Mailing List to all members in good standing. Prospective members interested in the bulk vending industry are furnished with our Introduction To Bulk Vending which furnishes helpful figures based on industry statistics.
We provide the individual company with a uniform national voice and cohesive force on a local level.

We represent our members in collective dealings with the Congress on matters of national interest and we consult and advise with regard to State and local laws, regulations, taxes and licensing.

Members receive bulletins from Association counsel throughout the year informing them of the constantly changing laws and regulations affecting them. The bulletins frequently deal with local licensing and state taxation. At the national level, we supported passage of the $1 Coin Act, we reinstated tariff relief our industry enjoyed since 1982 and we monitored the adoption of final Regulations under the new Child Safety Protection Act that mandates warning labels on each machine. These bulletins provide the only source of this type of information available in the country.

Any member who cares about his business and wants to operate according to the law must keep advised through Association bulletins.
