Held annually at Chicago’s McCormick Place and organized by the National Confectioners Association, the Sweets & Snacks Expo is the largest show in North America representing the confectionery and snack industries. 

The NCA says the new creative reflects the balance of confectionery and snack products available at the show, showcases the fun and enjoyment consumers have when they savor a favorite treat and offers inspiration to Sweets & Snacks Expo attendees.

With more than 15,000 industry professionals in attendance, the Sweets & Snacks Expo is where the candy and snack industries make meaningful connections and share their passion for delighting shoppers. The show draws more than 90 percent and 75 percent of the confectionery industry’s and snack industry’s buying power, respectively.
