Bringing Indoor Vegetable Growers Closer to Their Retail Customers
November 18, 2020 
The National Grocers Association (NGA) Show, the leading trade show and conference for independent grocers, and Indoor Ag-Con, the premier agriculture conference and trade show for the indoor and vertical farming industry, have announced that they will co-locate in 2021 for the first time. The combined event will be held May 16-18, 2021, at the new Caesars Forum Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Indoor Ag-Con, launched in 2013, provides exhibitors and attendees with the latest technology and business strategies for growing crops in indoor systems, using hydroponic, aeroponic, and aquaponics techniques, bringing together growers, investors, chefs, produce buyers, academics, policymakers, industry suppliers, and advocates.
“Indoor farming is an important segment that’s been on the rise for several years,” says Brian Sullivan, Co-owner of Indoor Ag-Con. “The great energy and audience the NGA Show has cultivated will be key to our combined success as we work together to better serve our industries. We look forward to welcoming visitors and exhibitors, and we can’t wait for a successful show.”
The NGA Show, entering its 38th year, has established itself as a premier educational and supplier resource serving the independent grocer community, says Courtney Muller, Chief Corporate Development and Strategy Officer with Clarion Events North America.
“By co-locating with Indoor Ag-Con, we bring our attendees a new resource to meet consumer demand for transparent food sourcing, delivering just-picked produce year-round and, for those on the cutting edge, access to in-store growing operational resources,” Muller says. “Ultimately, that means additional value for all of our customers and the industries overall.”
The NGA Show and Indoor Ag-Con visitors will have access to all exhibits, and discounts will be available for cross-over educational event attendance.
