AFTA is a national trade association with an effective, industry-wide voice for
parallel market (or secondary market) traders, their employees and their customers.
For nearly 25 years, AFTA has represented vendors, distributors and importers,
all of whom work to provide consumers with alternate sources of competitively priced,
brand name merchandise.
AFTA has been and continues to be well-recognized and visible in the debate over parallel
market issues.
AFTA has offered testimony to Congress, filed comments and met with
federal agencies, and appeared as amici curia in federal and state courts
throughout the country, including the two leading Supreme Court cases on
parallel market issues: the 1988 Kmart decision and the 1998 L'Anza decision.
AFTA's constituency provides American consumers, throughout the country,
with competitively priced, secure, unadulterated, and genuine merchandise.
AFTA is committed to ensuring a competitive and fair domestic commercial marketplace.
AFTA works with legislators and federal agencies to ensure the safety and
integrity of consumer products throughout the supply chain.
AFTA believes that legislation and regulations must fairly, consistently
and transparently balance the rights of consumers, retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers.
AFTA fights to eliminate all barriers which restrict and control access
to brand name merchandise.
