StorePoint Fresh 2027
StorePoint Fresh runs January 31–February 3, 2027 in Denver.
What it is
StorePoint Fresh is an invite-only hosted-buyer event for the grocery and supermarket industry, run by Emerald under its CPMG events portfolio. Grocery executives who make decisions on the store environment meet suppliers of the things that fill a fresh-food store.
On the retail side, attendees work in category management, store design, store development, store planning, strategic sourcing and visual merchandising. Supplier categories include:
- fixtures, displays and shelving; checkouts and millwork; carts
- refrigeration and coolers; food service equipment; materials handling equipment
- lighting and electrical; graphics and signage; flooring; building materials and plumbing
- customer-facing and operational technology; facilities, installation and merchandising services
How the format works
The organizer says this is not a traditional trade show. Retailers are placed in advance into peer groups of 7–9 executives, and suppliers give each group a 20-minute boardroom presentation. Private 15-minute one-on-one appointments come on top of that, along with keynote and content sessions and a full program of receptions and dinners.
Qualified retailers help build their own agenda, and the organizer pays their air, hotel and meals. Suppliers buy presentation and meeting packages that guarantee meetings with relevant buyers. The packages include meals, the social events and a directory listing, and sponsorships are optional.
