About The MHRA
Have you ever unlocked the front door to your business and felt as if you were carrying every business burden all by yourself? Have you ever had questions that you simply could not find the answer to? Did you ever wish you could find just another 1% to bring to the bottom line?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, you have uncovered a reason to be a member of the MHRA.
The Mississippi Hospitality & Restaurant Association is the only trade association in the state that exists solely for the purposes of helping you become successful.
We have a menu of training programs, many of which are free of charge to our members. If its hourly training you need, we have the program. Need supervisory skills training? Look no farther. Allow MHRA to evaluate your financial's free of charge.
Our core of endorsed services is sure to bring more money to your bottom line. From credit card processing and music licensing to health insurance and workers compensation insurance, our programs and services will bring more money to your bottom line.
To add benefit, your industry is represented by a team of government affairs experts that is dedicated to protecting you from harmful legislation while promoting legislation that will benefit the industry. We estimate that our Government Affairs victories have saved the average restaurant over $10,000 over the past 4 years.
But perhaps the most important reason for joining is that is simply the right thing to do. Consider it your fair share contribution to an organization that is already acting on your behalf. Your fair share contribution will help us expand our programs, services and legislative presence so we can be of even more benefit to the industry.
