How ECRM Differs From Traditional Trade Shows

Navigating trade shows amidst the chaos can be challenging, with uncertainty about the buyers you'll encounter. ECRM delivers distraction-free, curated, and in-person 1:1 meetings with national and regional buyers or food service operators - at a third of the cost of attending a traditional trade show.

"You have a lot more privacy, in your room and in your suite, you have undivided attention and most importantly, the people you meet with are interested in what you are selling. They are not just there to waste your time; they have genuine interest."

Level the Playing Field, Making It Easier to Get Noticed

At a trade show, unless you're in the top four or five competing companies within your industry, chances are you may have a smaller or hard-to-find booth space. If this is the case, getting people to notice you becomes increasingly more challenging.

Regardless of a supplier's size, we ensure private and pre-scheduled meetings with national and regional buyers and food service operators, providing each brand with an equal opportunity to have their products found.
