CHICAGO — Senior executives from Target and Ahold Delhaize USA will headline the Private Label Manufacturers Association’s “Store Brands Marketplace” Private Label Trade Show, highlighting the strategies driving store-brand growth at two of the nation’s largest retailers.

John Conlin, senior vice president of merchandising, food and beverage at Target, and Abby Cook, senior vice president of Own Brands at Ahold Delhaize USA, will deliver separate keynote addresses at the event.

The trade show will also feature an expanded showcase of private-label products and trends through PLMA’s newly introduced World of Ideas.

The World of Ideas is a reworking of the association’s Idea Supermarket, bringing several curated exhibits together in a redesigned venue. Displays will include the New Product Expo, Salute to Excellence Award Winners, Retail Trends, and International Wine Award Winners, offering attendees a look at product development and store-brand trends from the United States and international markets.

PLMA is also adding a networking reception to this year’s program. The reception will take place after a full day on the show floor and will give retailers, exhibitors and other industry attendees an opportunity to meet in an informal setting.

The Store Brands Marketplace is PLMA’s U.S. trade show, dedicated exclusively to the store brands industry.
