VSFA Announces 2026 Producer Expo

VSFA Announces Launch of New Industry-Wide Event

As regional buyers increasingly favor local trade events over large national shows, the Vermont Specialty Food Association is launching its first-ever Producer Expo, a smaller-format, wholesale-focused event set for May 4 at the Capitol Plaza Hotel in Montpelier from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. 

Producers, buyers, distributors, retailers and industry leaders will gather for an afternoon dedicated to product discovery, procurement and connection. The Expo serves as a marketplace for ideas, innovation and opportunity. 

For Vermont specialty food companies looking to exhibit and connect with distributors and buyers, the VSFA Producer Expo provides direct access to qualified buyers and trade professionals actively seeking Vermont-made products. The event supports business growth by helping producers expand wholesale accounts, launch new products and strengthen existing partnerships.
