Buyers from today s supermarkets, supercenters, drug chains, mass merchandisers, convenience stores, online retailers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, discounters, and even military exchanges! Exhibitors from more than 35 countries, including 10 international pavilions. And you and your company can be part of it. Exhibit in PLMA s 2012 Private Label Trade Show and build your private label business. For more than 30 years, PLMA s annual trade show has been the industry event of the year, where retailers and wholesalers have come to find products and suppliers for their private label programs. From food, snacks and beverages to household and kitchen products, from health and beauty to GM. Exhibitors range from small and medium-size companies to well-known national brand makers who also supply store brands. This year, PLMA will present more than 2,000 exhibit booths, including a special pavilion devoted to the fast-growing categories of pet care, cosmetics, and innovation and technology. To maximize efficiency, the show floor is divided into food and non-food halls and the schedule is concentrated into two days of exhibition time. PLMA s New Product Expo helps exhibitors showcase innovations in products and packaging. PLMA s online Show Preview helps exhibitors announce new products that they are introducing at the show. PLMA s Official Program Guide offers advertising opportunities to draw attention to exhibitors booth location and products on display.

3 PLMA s annual private label trade show is unique. No show offers exhibitors an opportunity to meet as many buyers from as many retail channels. And the timing of this year s show couldn t be better. The new Nielsen study on private brands says it all: private brands have become part of the retail culture as retailers continue to explore new ways to unlock sales through ongoing innovation, multi-tiered offering and unwavering commitment to quality. Exhibit at PLMA s 2012 Private Label Trade Show and you will take on all comers, too. Nov Chicago
