Award-Winning Selling Shows

Our buying tradeshows have been called “can’t miss events.”  Not only can you pitch your products directly to retailers, but they can then also purchase your items digitally at your booth. We bring our top buyers to experience products and buy items for either the summer or holiday season. Our show floors take product discovery to the next level through sampling, education, and the ability to connect with fellow foodies. During the pandemic, our teams have pivoted to create meaningful interactions, virtually.
