On-site Setup

We will do our best to not place you near a competitor. Once on-site, staff will direct you to your assigned shelf. If you have an issue with your display location, please do not move shelf signs around, see the expo team for help.
Setup
The Showcase will be locked except during setup, refresh, and tear-down times. Set up your display as early as possible on Thursday to maximize exposure.
Tear-Down
Any items not removed by 5:30 p.m. will be discarded, so be sure to remove anything valuable from your shelf. IFPA cannot assume responsibility for any stolen or damaged items.
Showcase Contest
Our judges will review the online listings, on-site displays, and in-booth promotional efforts to determine top finalists for the Best Product Promo and winners for the Best of Show Contest.
