Restaurant Row is a premier showcase for local restaurant locations, their chefs and culinary personalities. We understand the needs of your enterprise and know how important it is to get involved with large community events; however taking the time to exhibit in a 3 day “weekend” event with staffing might not be suitable for your business. Consumer exposure and involvement is needed in your industry and vital to your establishment. We have developed a program to fit your needs. You can profit by attending The Celebrity Food Show for one day and receive all the exposure and benefits a large trade show has to offer with out having to take time and staffing away from your restaurant. During this event your establishment will have the opportunity to display and sample products from your menu, say hello to the thousands of customers that attend this event.

Testimonials:

"The 2007 show was my first consumer event. I was able to present and sell  my Empanadas to so many people it was great thousands of people were there.  I opened up over 18 new food service accounts at the show, developed a much stronger retail customer base and landed 6 catering events. The customers loved the product and we sold out of everything we brought with us each day.  Mary made sure I had everything I needed to make this show a huge success for me. I can’t wait until the 2008 show! Thank for all your support!"
