National Chicken Council Information

Based in Washington D.C., the National Chicken Council (NCC) is the national, non-profit trade association representing the U.S. broiler chicken industry. Established in Richmond, Va., in 1954, the NCC is a full-service trade association that promotes and protects the interests of the broiler chicken producers and processors, fowl processors and allied industry members, as well as distributor members. We serve as the industry’s voice before Congress and federal agencies. NCC member companies include chicken producers and processors, poultry distributors and allied industry firms. We enforce proper guidelines and training of American broiler farmers to assure the humane treatment of animals and promote the production of quality products. Our member producers and processors account for approximately 95% of U.S. chicken production. At meetings and events at all levels, NCC continues to provide a forum in which industry members can share ideas and work toward solutions to common problems, serving as the unified voice for the broiler chicken industry.
