North American Export Grain Association (NAEGA) is a not-for-profit trade association focused on the international trade and development of agri-bulk commodities. Founded in 1912 and based in Arlington, Virginia, it brings together private and publicly owned companies as well as farmer-owned cooperatives that participate in and provide services to the global grain and oilseed trading industry. Its members export the bulk of U.S. grain and oilseeds to international markets. NAEGA's mission centers on promoting and sustaining the development of commercial exports by advocating policies, rules, and commercial practices that support trade in grains, oilseeds, and their derived products. In 2024, Alejandra Castillo was appointed as successor president and CEO, effective January 1, while Gary Martin retired from the role on March 31 after a 24-year tenure.
