It was so great to get back out into world and check the pulse of the industry! PMMI’s 3-day show typically alternates each year between Chicago and Las Vegas and co-locates PACK EXPO with the Healthcare➕ Packaging EXPO. This Vegas show was the first PMMI EXPO since 2019, following pandemic-related cancellation of the 2020 show.
There was a great vibe at the show; lots of energy and optimism for a growing industry. There were over 23,000 attendees and 1,500 exhibitors. A review from Packaging World Magazine notes it as the largest trade show in the U.S. in 2021 so far.
