The 2022 Private Label Manufacturers Association’s annual trade show was a sold out show, taking place on Nov. 13-15 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill. The theme for this year’s trade show was “Consumers Are Back in Charge,” emphasizing the importance of the consumer perspective in the private label sector.
As the trade show returned to an in-person setting, the show halls were bustling with retailers and wholesalers, PLMA member brokers, suppliers and non-exhibiting manufacturers, non-member visitors and members of the media. The trade show featured an international array of booths, with nearly 1,400 exhibitors and 2,300 booths filled with suppliers and store brand products.
