Retail Bakers of America

Each year, RBA recognizes the work of retired bakers and allied members, nominated by their regional bakery associations, who continue to be active in the national RBA and the baking industry. Established in 2008, the Emeritus membership category provides honorees with a lifetime membership to the Retail Bakers of America. Honorees are awarded at RBA's annual convention at a special Awards Ceremony.
