"The prebiotic market continues to expand, and interest in the category and in GPA is sky rocketing," said GPA Executive Director Len Monheit. "We are thrilled to welcome these new members who represent diverse parts of the industry and help expand GPA's reach." 

GPA has also introduced a Professional Membership level open to researchers and academics. This level is also available to individuals whose companies are perhaps too broad in their product sets to justify a full corporate membership, yet who want to engage and participate in the association. Students may also join at this level. For more information, visit prebioticassociation.org.
