n a world where 70% of US consumers believe
anything can be a snack, according to Mintel, it is
increasingly challenging for snack companies to
stand out from the rest of the products in the grocery
store. SNAXPO18, to be held March 12-14 in Atlanta, is
a can't-miss opportunity to ensure snack brands have
the tools and knowledge to be a leader in the future
of snacking. SNAXPO18 has been revamped to help
companies of all sizes, in all stages of their journeys turn
their most imaginative ideas into finished products.
In response to popular demand, SNAXPO will offer
more value in less time, with two full days of tradeshow
hours offered mid-week, rather than three days running
over a weekend. SNAXPO's networking opportunities
will kick off the evening of March 12, with an opening party at the newly opened College Football Hall of
Fame in downtown Atlanta. The exhibit hall will take
center stage March 13-14, along with expert speakers
on snack consumption and retail trends. There will also
be networking events to help form strong relationships
between snack leaders from around the world.
The exhibit hall will feature innovations from every
aspect of the snacking market, from the most efficient
machinery, to the best new processing solutions, the latest ingredients and most ingenious packaging. SNAXPO
will also host the second annual Flavor Pavilion, featuring

the boldest new snack flavors and a grand prize Flavor of
the Year Award as voted on by attendees. Last year, more
than 30 new flavors were sampled by attendees.
Additionally, SNAXPO will feature its inaugural innovation area, which will highlight only the newest
product launches (one year or less) in processing/packaging machinery, quality instruments and technologies
so attendees can easily find the newest innovations on
display. In another first, the Snack Producer of the Year
Award winner will be unveiled at SNAXPO.
Educational sessions will help snack makers uncover
what consumers of today and tomorrow want from
their snacks, where a transforming retail industry is
headed, what regulatory issues snack makers need to
be aware of and how new ideas and products catch on
and go viral.
SNAXPO18 will connect snack producers with the
people, information and resources needed to fuel
imagination and spark new ideas. Join SNAC International in Atlanta for high-value creativity, inspiration and
technology. For more information on SNAXPO18, visit
