At least 31 specialty food companies that participate in the Virginia’s Finest® trademark program will exhibit at the trade show.

Organized by the Specialty Food Association, the Summer Fancy Food Show is North America’s largest specialty food and beverage event. Amid record demand for specialty food, this year’s show is expected to attract 28,000 buyers, including international delegations and top names in retail and restaurants. Virginia foods featured at this year’s show include peanuts and peanut products, apples and apple products, biscotti, cured meats, chips, crackers, confections, cakes, coffee, pasta, popcorn, preserves, salsas, sauces, syrups, seasonings, soups and more. The Virginia Pavilion will be located in booth spaces 4900-4933, with VDACS in booth 4907.

VDACS promotes Virginia’s specialty food products at the Fancy Food Shows, which highlight the world’s finest food and beverages. More than 2,400 exhibitors from across the globe will feature 180,000 products at this year’s summer show.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Virginia’s Finest® program. Developed in 1989 by VDACS, the program identifies, differentiates and promotes top-quality agriculture and specialty food and beverage products.
