Program Overview
The Retailer Exchange is a unique opportunity to network and collaborate with food retailers and answer their questions concerning your company’s equipment, products and services. Vendors are encouraged to highlight innovations, showcase product and service applicability, and emphasize ROI for retailers.
Product displays are allowed but vary by Retailer Exchange type. Please review the options available and select appropriately for your company. Rules are strictly enforced based on the Retailer Exchange type.

Additional Details
Table Rules
Displays must be limited to what can fit on top of the table provided (6’ x 30”) and must be under 30” in height. Items such as product samples (e.g., a book of flooring options) and scale models (e.g., of refrigeration equipment) can be shown.
Please note that electrical outlets will not be available – so no audio, video or electrical equipment is permitted (except a laptop computer or tablet with a self-generated power source). Table displays (above 30”), pop-up displays, banners and/or backdrops or anything that is placed on the floor are not permitted. A company branded tablecloth is allowed.
Booth Rules
Table displays, pop-up displays, backdrops and pull-up banners are allowed but must be limited to your 10’ X 10’ booth space. Items such as product samples, equipment and other displays can be shown. Please note, electricity is available for purchase directly from the hotel, but audio is not allowed.
It is important to know that this is not a tradeshow and the event does not have a general contractor or advance warehouse. Companies are responsible for their own set-up and tear-down within a limited timeframe and labor is not available.
What Next?
Register online to reserve your Retailer Exchange table or booth. After registering and reserving your 6' table or 10' x10' booth, FMI will reach out for additional company details for inclusion in the conference app. Please provide all requested information, including company description, logo, website address, and sales contact phone number. Descriptions should include a brief overview of your company’s products and services. FMI is not responsible for details that are not completed in their entirety.
Don’t forget to register your whole team! Only one (1) Retailer Exchange table or booth is needed per company, but each attendee must register and pay the registration fee.
