The organization was established for the purpose of bringing together persons engaged in the distribution of lds products. The organization is further committed to the advancement of the industry through education and association.
What it reported doing in 2015

It was attended by retail members of the association. In addition, the association provided a social evening with a dinner, awards and entertainment at no cost to the members.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
The verdict
REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
