The 2022 PLMA Show will put special emphasis on food and non-food areas where store brand innovation is exploding.

Citing data from IRI, PLMA said store brands gained 6.5 percent in dollar sales, while national brands increased 5.2 percent during the same period.

PLMA Global will provide a convenient, secure and information-rich platform where retailers from the U.S., Canada, Europe and Asia can engage with current, former and prospective private-label suppliers.

The Private Label Manufacturers Association has canceled its January 2022 Private Label Trade Show in Chicago due to the ongoing effects of COVID-19 on business travel. 

Originally planned for Nov. 14-16, the rescheduled show will be held in-person at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago.

We got word this week that the 2020 Private Label Manufacturers Association Show has been moved to a virtual format — the last 2020 event Candy Industry had planned to cover in person this year. So now we look to 2021.
