“We’re seeing unprecedented interest from global buyers this year, and it's a clear signal that the world is looking to the Global Show as the event to do business,” said Jessica Keller, IFPA’s Vice President of Global Industry Relations.
Among these powerhouse buyers is Costco, with representatives from eight of its global divisions attending.
“Costco finds the IFPA Global Show to be extremely valuable, said Bob Huskey, VP GMM, Fresh Foods, Costco.

We meet internally to align on global strategies while also engaging with our suppliers as a unified, global team.”
