Mission

EFBA represents European fur farmers’ interests at both European and international institutions. To fulfill its mission, EFBA participates proactively in the development of a legislative framework and business conditions where all European fur farmers can compete effectively for sustainable growth as well as proudly meeting consumers’ demand for information about product origin.

      • Maintain the European fur-farming sector as a worldwide leader in best practices
        (e.g. animal welfare) by participating proactively in scientific research.
      • Strive to standardise European practices and legislation based on both high welfare
        standards and socio-economic sustainability.
      • Promote a proud and realistic image of the fur-farming sector in public opinion and among European representatives.
