Summer Fancy Food Show 2023

Summer Fancy Food Show is the largest specialty food show in North America. First organized in 1952, the Fancy Food Show invites buyers not only from the US but from other parts of the world such as Canada, Europe and Asia into a one-of- a-kind tradeshow held in New York City. The Specialty Food Association’s State of the Specialty Food Industry Report notes that specialty food remains one of the fastest-growing segments of the food business. Revealing that the specialty food market reached total sales of $175 billion in 2021, up 7.4 percent versus 5.8 percent the year before, when foodservice’s steep decline offset outsized gains in brick-and-mortar retail and ecommerce.

Each year SUSTA sponsors a 19-booth pavilion, allowing new companies to showcase their products to international buyers from across the world! This show provides SUSTA region companies a cost-effective opportunity to introduce their products to a mix of national and foreign buyers without leaving the United States. The show is the perfect venue to establish meaningful business relationships, and introduce them to international markets through the Inbound Trade Missions.
