2022 AAFP Conference

The annual AAFP conference will be September 12-14, 2022 at the Fayetteville Town Center, Fayetteville AR.

We are excited to announce the dates for the 14th Annual Arkansas Association of Food Protection (AAFP) conference to be held on Sept 12-14th at the Town Center in Fayetteville, AR with both In-Person and Virtual Attendance options available. Our goal is to create a conference that is worthy of the Food Safety sector in Arkansas. Our state’s food processing and food safety reaches far beyond Arkansas and the region with products and decisions by global entities headquartered in our state. With this conference and other workshops, we make an effort to keep our food safety professionals informed of their impact at home and beyond Arkansas.

If you have any questions or concerns, please use the contact portal on our website that can be accessed via the following link:

We look forward to seeing you at future AAFP events.
