The National Restaurant Show, like many other tradeshows, is increasingly battling fraudulent companies attempting to prey on exhibitors by “selling” exhibitor contact information and/or attendee lists. Please be extremely cautious of any email claiming to sell you services regarding attendee communication, exhibitor contact information, and hotel rates. We are actively working to have these companies cease and desist their practices.

If you are sampling food or beverage on the Show floor you must complete the required form. The sampling forms will be located in the exhibitor dashboard once the service kit is released in January.
