History

Interstellar Beverage Trade Federation (IBTF): History and Goals
Founded in 2951, the Interstellar Beverage Trade Federation (IBTF) was established to bring together the galaxy’s finest taverns, bars, and beverage traders under one prestigious banner. Recognizing the need for a unified standard of excellence across the interstellar beverage industry, the IBTF was created to ensure that customers, no matter where they are in the universe, can trust the quality and service of IBTF-affiliated establishments.

Our goals
  1. Elevate Industry Standards: The IBTF aims to set the highest standards for beverage quality, service, and ethical trade practices across the galaxy.
  2. Support Member Establishments: Through resources, training, and networking opportunities, the IBTF empowers its members to continuously improve and innovate.
  3. Consumer Trust and Recognition: By awarding seals of quality, the IBTF assures consumers that they are visiting bars and taverns that are committed to excellence.

Membership and Certification Process
The IBTF membership and certification process is designed to maintain the integrity of our federation and uphold the quality we promise to customers.

  1. Application: Business owners who lead active bars or beverage trading establishments can apply for IBTF membership. Acceptance into the federation means the IBTF acknowledges the establishment’s presence in the industry and begins the process of monitoring its adherence to our standards.
  2. Verification: Once a member, the establishment undergoes an initial verification process. This ensures that the business meets the basic standards required by the IBTF. Verified businesses are recognized as meeting the minimum criteria for quality and service.
  3. Seal of Quality: After verification, establishments can earn one of three levels of the IBTF Seal of Quality:
  • Bronze Seal: Awarded to bars that consistently meet the basic IBTF standards.
  • Silver Seal: Given to establishments that exceed basic standards, offering exceptional customer service and quality.
  • Golden Seal: The highest honor, awarded to bars that exemplify excellence in every aspect of their operations, from customer relations to beverage quality.
