Food Federation Germany was founded on March 10, 1955 in Nuremberg, Germany, under the name Federation for Food Law and Food Science (German: Bund für Lebensmittelrecht und Lebensmittelkunde, abbreviated BLL) as a re-establishment of the Federation of German Food Manufacturers and Traders (German: Bund Deutscher Nahrungsmittel-Fabrikanten und -Händler) that had been active from 1901 to 1945.[3] In May 2019, the association's general meeting voted for changing the association's name to Food Federation Germany (German: Lebensmittelverband Deutschland).[4] The name change came into force in July 2019, followed by a rebranding process that was awarded a Rebrand 100: merit at the 2020 Rebrand 100 Global Awards.[5]
