Welcome to the National Chicken Council
Description
The National Chicken Council (NCC), based in Washington, D.C., is the national, non-profit trade association representing the U.S. chicken industry. NCC is a full-service trade association that promotes and protects the interests of the chicken industry and is the industry’s voice before Congress and federal agencies. NCC member companies include chicken producer/processors, poultry distributors, and allied industry firms. The producer/processors account for approximately 95 percent of the chickens produced in the United States.
The National Chicken Council was first established in 1954 in Richmond, Virginia, as the National Broiler Council. NCC headquarters moved to the nation’s capital in 1965 and the new name, National Chicken Council, was adopted in 1999, to better describe the industry and its products.
NCC is governed and policy is set by its four officers and Board of Directors, composed of leaders in the industry and elected each October. NCC maintains eight standing committees, consisting of representatives from its member companies. These are the Executive, Communications, Environmental, Marketing, Growout, Poultry Health, Safety and Health, and Technical and Regulatory Committees.
