FAIITA was formed to address the online pricing issue in early 2014. As it has made a lot of positive efforts to streamline this issue, the association wants to expand the gamut of FAIITA objectives and work at bigger trade issues and improve the IT channel health.
As a first step towards achieving this goal, FAIITA will become a registered body and increase the number of executive members. Currently, there are only four regional secretaries, who are addressing the issues of their local association members and taking up them with the brand owners and local bodies.
