How to read the tiers

Associate gets you in. Verified builds trust. Premier gets you booked.

Food vendors can join at the associate level, move into verified status when documentation is in place, and step into a premier profile when they need a stronger public-facing page. Suppliers, planners, and venues come in as partners, with associate and premier levels based on how visible and booking-ready they want to be.

  • Associate: a starting membership for businesses that want to join before verification is complete.
  • Verified: a documented food vendor with active review and a TXFVA verification record.
  • Premier Food Vendor: verified status plus a booking-ready profile with stronger public visibility.
  • Supplier Associate or Premier: directory access first, then richer offers, links, and partner visibility.
  • Planner and venue Associate or Premier: partner access first, then stronger event-facing profile tools.
  • Member Deal Partner: a premier partner badge for approved businesses offering a real member discount.
