The food and beverage industry is always evolving. New trends, innovations, products, and ideas mushroom every day. And it’s only those companies that make due diligence that will withstand the ever increasingly cut-throat competition. One way for industry players to learn all about all of the new food-related information and innovations is through trade shows. For our PrintJet clients, these shows also offer a great opportunity to learn about great coders from manufacturers such as Videojet and Domino Amjet.

The beverage and food business is a huge industry, ranging from food service and agriculture to retail and wholesale. Even technology and marketing are part and parcel of this industry. All of these types of companies, as well as coding makers such as Domino Amjet, set up booths at these trade shows, making it a convenient one-stop shop for many of your company’s needs.

Herein are three must-attend food-related trade shows that feature everything from food safety to packaging and everything in between. Read on to take your food or beverage business to a whole new and exciting level.

Food Safety Summit
Going by the slogan “solutions for today, planning for tomorrow,” Food Safety Summit is an annual conference and expo held within the second week of May. This three-day summit is designed to cater to the informational and educational needs of the food and beverage industry. These stakeholders include growers, retailers, processors, food service sector, distributors, academia, and regulators. Here, trainers and experts exchange solutions and ideas in a cross-platform program.

And that isn’t all. The Summit also features a large Exhibit Hall teeming with a raft of forward thinking vendors, innovators, and exclusive networking opportunities. It’s in this hall that you will meet players like Domino Amjet, and learn more about their coding equipment. The next summit will be held May 8-11, 2017, at Donald Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.

SnaxPo
Much like Food Safety Summit, SnaxPo takes place in April each year. But, SnaxPo is geared towards snack food industry. At SnaxPo, you will enjoy the charm, history and tantalizing culinary offerings, while mingling with the top brass of the snack industry. Snack companies also will get an unprecedented opportunity to meet users and buyers from every section of the industry.

Even better, you can network with industry players including financiers, tech and packaging innovators. Be sure to drop by Domino Amjet booth or visit other coding companies to learn about exciting innovations in food packaging printing. The next SnaxPo conference and expo is scheduled for April 1 – 4, 2017, at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center in Savannah, Georgia.

The Summer Fancy Food Show & Winter Fancy Food Show
These are billed as the “largest specialty food and beverage expos featuring confections, coffee, spices, snacks, natural, ethnic and more.” In fact, you can also connect with more than 2,000 exhibitors. The summer event is held annually in New York in late June, while the winter one takes place annually in San Francisco in January.

Of course, if you already own a Domino Amjet coder or perhaps are looking to purchase one of these machines, we can help. Not only do we sell fully refurbished “like new” Domino coders, we also formulate high-quality, low-cost versions of Domino inks and make up. You can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars each year using our replacement inks rather than purchase OEM inks. We also have replacement parts for your Domino coder and offer repair services.
