“This is a tremendous turnout, especially considering the current economic climate,” said outgoing SFA Chairman Terry McDaniel, President &CEO of The Inventure Group, Inc. “It demonstrates the outstanding value that SFA provides to its members.”
More than 135 exhibitors displayed and demonstrated the latest products and services available to the industry during a two-day trade show that featured cutting edge equipment and technology, ingredients, seasonings, packaging, and new product opportunities that respond to today’s snack consumers.
In addition, the trade show featured an exciting new product tasting area where dozens of new snack products that responded to today’s growing consumer interest in healthier-for-you foods and those with full flavor and spicy profiles were sampled by SNAXPO attendees.
“This is a tremendous show,” said SFA President &CEO Jim McCarthy as he walked the trade show floor, mindful of the busy booth traffic being experienced by exhibitors. “This is an outstanding opportunity for both exhibitors and attendees alike, and clearly they are taking advantage of it.”
