Our events have built a reputation for being filled with networking opportunities and a chance to explore the vast array of products and services offered by leading manufacturers.
Our goal is to provide a unique platform for businesses to connect and collaborate. With a diverse range of exhibitors from across the globe, attendees can expand their knowledge of product offerings and innovative systems. Whether you’re a seasoned industry professional or an aspiring entrepreneur, this event offers unpar- alleled opportunities for growth and success.
This show has always been about providing an opportunity to stay ahead of the curve by exploring the latest trends and advancements in the industry. From innovative cleaning solutions to cutting-edge technologies like IoT and robotics, the Expo showcases products that can transform your business operations. We strive to provide that “aha” moment when a customer is able to gain valuable insights from knowledgeable experts and be at the forefront of industry developments.
Imperial Dade is celebrating another incredible year of expansion and growth. Since we greeted Northeast customers at the Meadowlands Expo Center a year ago, we have continued our expansion in Canada, Hawaii, and other areas throughout the US.
Even with 130 plus locations, we understand at the heart of what we do is our commitment to serving our customers. While technological advancements can certainly enhance efficiency, we recognize that we are ultimately a people-centric company. Our customers rely on us to deliver, no matter where they do business. This commitment to service has been the driving force behind our growth.
That’s why we continue to see trade shows as vital to our marketing strategy. These events provide an experiential marketing opportunity that is invaluable for brand building and awareness. According to a 2022 study by Google, industry events like trade shows play a major role in buyer awareness of B2B supplier partners. Trade shows offer us the chance for customers to physically walk through our catalog, interact with the products, and speak with product experts.
We remain convinced that touch and feel are crucial factors in the buying process and the Expo provides an exceptional opportunity to do just that. Customers can inspect the attributes of the products, such as quality, weight, closure mechanisms, and size configurations. This level of interaction simply cannot be replicated on the web.
This year’s show will reflect some of the changes that the Pandemic brought to how our customers operate. One area of focus that has been reinforced is the importance of cleanliness and safety. The pandemic brought hygiene to the forefront for businesses across all industries. We recognize that cleanliness and hygiene are no longer just the responsibility of a few individuals but a collective effort. Imperial Dade offers a range of products, systems, and training programs that make cleaning and hygiene more straightforward, effective, and safer for employees.
We also understand that many of our customers are trying to create and implement food waste reduction strategies. Our show will enable operators to minimize waste through product selection. Our expanding Victoria Bay foodservice packaging line has become a valuable tool in helping operators minimize waste and save money by right sizing their food packaging.
