About ENGA

ENGA is the voice of the European Non-GMO food and feed business sector. We work to protect credible, transparent Non-GMO labelling and consumers’ freedom to choose Non-GMO food. 

ENGA is an international non-profit association in accordance with Belgian law, an “association internationale sans but lucratif” (AISBL).

ENGA is based in Brussels.

ENGA’s mission under the new EU legal framework for NGTs

Following the adoption of the new EU Regulation on plants obtained by certain New Genomic Techniques in June 2026 ((EU) 2026/1388), ENGA works to ensure that Non-GMO production remains credible, practicable and economically viable throughout Europe.

ENGA represents the interests of businesses and organisations that respond to consumer demand for food produced without GMOs. We advocate for transparency throughout the value chain, reliable access to information, effective detection methods, thorough certification schemes, workable coexistence measures and fair allocation of responsibilities and costs.

ENGA coordinates cooperation between national Non-GMO associations, food and feed businesses, agriculture, processors, retailers, certification bodies and laboratories. Together, we develop practical solutions and support the adaptation of Non-GMO standards and supply chains before the new Regulation applies in July 2028.
