Starting in 2023, FEMA will collect nominations for the Dr. Richard L. Hall Distinguished Service Award from the FEMA Board of Governors. Created in 1995 to honor Dr. Hall, whose career has been marked by exceptional commitment and service to the flavor industry. The award pays tribute to those who have shown outstanding dedication to the advancement of our industry and the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association. The award is only intended for those whose contributions meet the highest standards of excellence and distinction. The award will be presented only in those years when a candidate is identified with a record of long and distinguished service.
