Attending a food show or trade event is a good way to find new products for your restaurant. You can check out new trends in the restaurant food business, and make contacts with industry experts. It is also a good way meet potential new food suppliers & obtain quotes on products and merchandise. You can also purchase merchandise or sign a contract with a vendor. But, the most fun is to taste the samples and getting ideas on how to use the products.
If you would like to attend one of these shows, please use the contact information provided with each show listed.
