The NGA Show 2027: A Popular Trade Show for Independent Grocers

The NGA Show 2027 runs from January 31 to February 2, 2027, at the MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas, NV. It is run by the National Grocers Association (NGA) and produced by Clarion Events; this is the one show built just for independent grocers. This isn’t a general food show; it’s the place where independent retailers and wholesalers actually go to grow their business.

Around 3,500 to 9,000 people are expected across the three days, based on past editions, including independent grocery retailers, wholesalers, food and CPG manufacturers, and service providers. The show also runs education sessions on running a grocery business day-to-day, keynote talks from industry leaders, and plenty of time for the attendees and exhibitors to network. Picking the right booth size for The NGA Show 2027 requires you to understand your goal first. A 10×10 inline booth works well for smaller suppliers, service companies, and vendors. This size gives you room for a table, signage, and a spot to talk without needing extra space. Next, 20×20 or larger island booths suit CPG brands and food manufacturers who need room for live sampling, cooking demos, or showing off a full product line at once. Independent grocery buyers walk the floor looking for products they can put on shelves right away, and a bigger open booth lets you show more, right there on the spot.

Not always. A well-placed 10×10 works fine for meetings and smaller product lines, but bigger brands with more to show usually benefit from an island booth.
5. When should exhibitors book booth space? As early as possible. Good spots and preferred sizes go fast once registration opens.
