The Small Scale Food Processor Association (SSFPA)

of Iceland

SSFPA was founded on November 5th 2019 in Hotel Saga in Reykjavík.

Governing Charter - Article 2

A small scale food processor is defined in this governing charter as follows:

A company that at the day of issue of the financial statement does not exceed the limit of at least two of the following three criteria:

1. Total assets: ISK 100,000,000

2. Net turnover: ISK 100,000,000
