Welcome to ITODA

The Independent Turf and Ornamental Distributors Association (ITODA) was formed in 1990 to foster the trade, commerce, and interests of those independently owned businesses engaged in the business of servicing and marketing products for the turf and ornamental landscaping industries.

In achieving our goals, ITODA presents a united front to manufacturers, customers, and other independents, along with a strong sense of environmental responsibility.

Our hope is to bring together distributors and manufacturers in a true business partnership, recognizing all philosophies of manufacturers and suppliers to find the common ground that enhances our mutual prosperity.

We're Here To Help

Employing, training, and developing professional personnel

Developing high quality sales techniques

Developing and maintaining the highest levels of marketing stewardship and accountability for all turf and ornamental products.

ITODA is about building value, for me personally and for my businesses. ITODA provides the tools to do just that by giving us access to top-shelf speakers and training programs that we might not otherwise be able to fit into our budgets on our own.
