Mala Parker

I lead the planning, coordination, and implementation of IFDA’s portfolio of federal policy and advocacy work, grassroots activity, and political engagement. I am also responsible for driving strategies that increase industry awareness, support IFDA’s business goals, and expand member engagement across all channels. I love dining out and connecting over a meal. Promoting the growth and success of the industry that makes those meals possible means more people can enjoy those occasions, boosting local economies and strengthening communities.
