Retail Services

Retailers and wholesalers can participate in all PLMA member programmes, and thus benefit from networking opportunities at complimentary or reduced registration fees. Below is an overview of available services.

Trade Shows

Trade shows are all about networking opportunities, sourcing products and finding new suppliers. To help retailers and wholesalers connect with private label manufacturers on a global scale, PLMA organises the World of Private Label International Trade Show in Amsterdam each May and the U.S. Private Label Trade Show in Chicago each November. Both shows are leaders in their category and offer complimentary participation to verifiable retailers and wholesalers.
