National Account Operator Agenda

Taste new products, meet chefs and suppliers, learn from industry leaders—you can do all this and more at Innovations.

 

Innovations is one of the few trade shows where all exhibited products can be sourced from a single place: Dot Foods. In addition to tasting products you can source, you’ll enjoy ample networking opportunities, entertainment, seminars, and exclusive national account programming. The show is free to attend for invited operators, and we’ll even cover hotel and travel for one person from each company.
