IFPA offers benefits for business solution providers at Global Show 2026

September 1, 2026 – For business solution providers serving the fresh produce industry, the IFPA Global Produce & Floral Show (GPFS) BB #:378962 has become something bigger than a marketing stop. 

It’s where the operational challenges facing growers, packers, distributors and retailers get solved in real time, face-to-face.

“We’re always excited to be part of the IFPA Global Produce & Floral Show because it’s where the brightest minds and most innovative companies in the produce industry come together to shape the future,” said Kaitlin Wyatt, marketing manager at JBT Marel BB #:233351.

“For JBT Marel, it’s an incredible opportunity to showcase our end-to-end produce solutions, juicing technology, connect with customers and partners, and demonstrate technologies that help drive efficiency, quality, and growth across the fresh produce value chain. Every year, we leave inspired by the conversations, partnerships, and opportunities that make this event such a cornerstone of our industry.”

For solution providers exploring a first-time exhibit, that’s exactly the opportunity: a chance to be in the room where the industry’s biggest operational problems get solved.

There are other benefits for first-time exhibitors. For example, new exhibitors are matched with a veteran exhibitor from the business solution provider community. This is a company that has already figured out how to get produce operations, logistics, and sourcing teams to stop at their booth rather than treating the show purely as a sales-and-marketing event.

That mentorship, paired with the show’s newer booth packages designed to lower the barrier to entry, is meant to help first-time solution providers get a return on their exhibit faster.

Beyond exhibitor benefits, becoming an IFPA member carries benefits that run deeper than any single conversation on the show floor. Exhibiting connects solution providers to a standing network of growers, retailers, and fellow innovators working the same supply chain problems. 

As returning exhibitors emphasize, a booth at GPFS isn’t just floor space; it’s a seat in the marketplace of solutions shaping where produce and floral operations are headed next.
