The Washington Restaurant Association is a member-driven organization that is focused on helping our members succeed. Working in conjunction with the National Restaurant Association we are able to provide a dual membership with the WRA and the NRA, furthering the resources for members.
Solutions and Training
The WRA includes an Education Foundation that provides Washington state's hospitality community with education and training opportunities. We offer a variety of programs that help businesses including educational classes, such as food safety and alcohol server training.
Political Representation
In addition to these programs, the WRA provides government relations services. The association directly represents members through lobbying efforts with the state Legislature and has one of the most sophisticated and effective grassroots lobbying organizations in the state.
Industry News and Information
The information resources available through the Assocation is vast. We publish a monthly news magazine, The Front Burner, provide online daily industry news, weekly emails and our Handbook for Excellent Restaurant Operations is regarded highly among restaurateurs. We also manage a network of consultants that are the industry's best in class and are available for member consulting at no charge.
Money Saving Programs and Resources
Restaurateurs work on tight profit margins and any assistance helping their bottom line is welcome. Therefore we offer a host of business assistance programs, such as a workers’ compensation program, health insurance and other money saving resources.
Helping our members succeed.
Founded in 1929, the Washington Restaurant Association is the leading business association representing the state’s hospitality industry and we are proud to serve our members.
