Starting a Branch


Forming a New Branch in the IW&FS Americas Region

Do you enjoy the pleasure of fine wine and food, especially when shared with a group of like-minded friends? If so, you may want to join the International Wine & Food Society by forming a new branch in your community.

This short video below provides some information on doing just that:

Forming a branch of IW&FS will open a door to memorable hours shared with friends over great wines and foods, but we won’t mislead you: It will take time and effort. Any new branch is chartered at the sole discretion of IW&FS Americas and some of the requirements to being granted a charter include:

  • Non-discriminatory membership policies

  • A minimum of 10 dues-paying members to IW&FS Americas

  • No branch or member may use IW&FS for any personal or professional promotion or gain

Our Branch Development Committee would love to hear from you! Please fill out the form below to request more information.
