WELCOME TO NGCRA

NATIONAL GOLF COURSE RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION

ABOUT US

Food and Beverage professionals within the Golf and Country Club industry are presented with a unique set of challenges that only their peers can fully understand. The National Golf Course Restaurant Association (NGCRA) was developed to be a support system for these professionals, with a focus on helping food and beverage departments network and reduce spending without sacrificing creativity. As the first and only association dedicated to providing these services and support, they have become a valuable resource for clubs throughout the United States.  

This very special organization is operated by the motto “Created For Our Members By Our Members”, which is, perhaps, why being a part of the NGCRA becomes such a wonderful experience. The group of professionals which operate the NGCRA believe in fostering close relationships with all members, providing an intimate level of service you can’t get anywhere else.  Over the past ten years, we have helped hundreds of clubs maximize food sales while cutting food costs through relationships with the nation’s top manufacturers and distribution partners.

True creativity is fostered through exposure to continued education and inspiration from other clubs. Members of the NGCRA are given opportunities to participate in Networking Forums, where they can meet with their fellow chefs and industry peers to compare experiences and notes.

There are a number of benefits to becoming an NGCRA member. We have valuable relationships with food and product providers, directly related to our Cost Savings program. The NGCRA also works hard to keep members abreast of the newest trends and success strategies. Running a successful Food and Beverage department is easier when management has access to operational tools and industry statistics. Additional information can be accessed through our newsletters.

TESTIMONIALS

“The National Golf Course Restaurant Association (NGCRA) has been instrumental in reducing acquisition costs, generating network opportunities, introducing brand procurement possibilities, suggesting successful business strategies, and continues to be informative with their communication platforms (newsletter compilations, forums, associate interactions, etc). Hammock Dunes Club is a premier private oceanfront community with two golf courses and multiple food and beverage outlets. Tory Eulenfeld, the National Director of Member Services and Programs, developed a great partnership with the Club prior to me. Once I started (back in 2017), she was very involved in making me feel supported, influential with providing information about the association’s offerings and advantages, but above all - one of the most personable and pleasant company representatives I have ever encountered. Members of the program immediately identify and appreciate the multitude of benefits available to themselves, their team, and the company they represent.”
