The mission

The Consumer Product Showcase is designed to help suppliers, entrepreneurs, small businesses and brands (84% of which will be diverse or minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, disability-owned or LGBTQ+-owned) expand their business through partnerships with national merchandisers and large retailers.

As a sponsor, your brand will be seen by thousands of retailers and brands looking to diversify their product offering or simply interested in seeing the next cool product.

The showcase will take place Sunday, January 15 and Monday, January 16 during Retail's Big Show.
