We’ve just updated the list of foodservice open houses, product shows, and trade shows for 2020. You can find the updated list on the IFYA website, in the Froyo Resources section: http://internationalfrozenyogurt.com/resources/open-houses-trade-shows/
Note that the Froyo Resources section is reserved for IFYA members. Be sure to sign up for your free IFYA membership to access the list.
Our list includes open houses, product shows, and trade shows that might be of interest to those currently a part of or aspiring to join the frozen yogurt industry. These events highlight new products, new ideas, as well as provide access to suppliers, educational opportunities, and networking opportunities.
Open house sponsors include frozen yogurt machine manufacturers, foodservice distributors, and packaging companies. Open houses are generally free to attend but many require pre-registration, so be sure to check the sponsor’s website before attending. Many open houses take place during the first quarter (January – March).
Trade shows take place around the world and they are attended by foodservice professionals. Trade shows typically require registration and a badge fee. Some have restricted attendance and are not open to the general public.
We did notice a significant decline in the number of froyo related open houses and product shows. Even the number of food tradeshows seems to have declined and some shows only take place every other year.
We will continue to update the list of open houses and trade shows as we find out about new events. If you’d like to add an event to the list, please contact us at info@internationalfrozenyogurt.com
We’ve also been busy updating our website, particularly our article library and press room.
