The expo not only offers these innovators a chance to shine but also serves as a critical networking event, connecting them with distributors, retailers, and directly with consumers. For Australian and New Zealand businesses, this event could be a strategic step towards capturing the vibrant and expanding U.S. market.

This year’s expo is more than just a trade show, perhaps a vital bridge linking Australasian plant-based businesses with one of the world's largest markets for plant-based products.
