The National Grocers Association (NGA) says that it will move its 2019 and 2020 shows in order to accommodate growth. The show has been held in Las Vegas for the past several years and will be held there in 2017 and 2018.

The 2019 and 2020 NGA Shows will be held in San Diego, California, on Feb. 24-27 and Feb. 23-26, respectively. This move in location is directly in response to the need for a larger convention space to meet the growth in exhibitor and participant attendance and reflects the continued growth of NGA, which has doubled its membership in the past five years, according to the organization.

“We are very enthusiastic about the future of The NGA Show as well as the independent supermarket industry, and San Diego an exciting destination to match that sentiment. As we continue to expand we look forward to working with our Show partners to deliver value to attendees and make this a memorable conference,” said NGA President and CEO Peter J. Larkin.

With more than 35 educational sessions and workshops, the show offers an unparalleled chance to catch up on industry issues, trends and developments. Education seminars, roundtable discussions and partner exhibits are all geared to provide attendees with the latest information that they can take home and implement in their businesses.

“Over the past five years, the interest shown by our trading partners has been tremendous, creating the need for a larger expo floor,” said Matt Ott, NGA’s COO. “We look forward to expanding and diversifying exhibitors on the expo floor to provide attendees with multiple opportunities to view and research new products and services for their business. The NGA Show brings together independent retailers and wholesalers, food retail industry executives, CPG manufacturers and service providers, truly making it the place for independent grocers to gather and network.”

For more than 30 years, The NGA Show has been the place where independents gather, connecting grocery retailers and wholesalers, food manufacturers and service providers from around the world to share innovative solutions and best practices that support and strengthen the independent supermarket channel.

NGA’s show announcement comes a week after the Food Marketing Institute said that it was canceling its 2017 FMI Connect conference in Chicago.
