Affiliations
The CSA is a member of the American Spice Trade Association (ASTA), an international trade association similar to the CSA, whose mandate is more extensive due to its larger international base of members. ASTA engages in additional activities such as establishing worldwide standards for cleanliness and analysis, monitoring pesticides, offering informational publications and providing information on trade statistics and technical issues. As a member we have access to these services.
The Saskatchewan Herb and Spice Association (SHSA) and the CSA have reciprocal membership. We have association with the European Spice Association (ESA) and have formed industry coalitions with other food organizations, e.g. The Canadian Association of Importers and Exporters (IE Canada) and The Food and Consumer Products of Canada (FCPC).
