Educational Sessions

The NRA Show is a place to build your skills. Whether you’ve recently opened a restaurant or you’re a veteran in the industry, there are learning opportunities abound. Hear about the industry’s hottest topics, participate in colorful discussions, and learn from the personal success stories and cautionary tales of your culinary idols.

Check out the show’s schedule and plan out your experience!

Test Out The Latest In Innovation

Following last year’s NRA Show, Chicago Business posted a roundup of the coolest food innovations from the show. From antibiotic-free bacon sausage to compostable dishware, every corner of the food industry demonstrated innovative foods and products. Nitro cold brew was first introduced at NRA Show 2016, and now nitro cold brew is the latest trend to gain huge momentum in the beverage market.

This year, see it for yourself first. You may be inspired to invest in a faster, more efficient technology for your restaurant or add a cool new recipe to your menu.

Check Out Your Competitors

Any large trade show is a great opportunity to get some intel on your competition. Don’t be last to the latest trend by staying on top of restaurant trends and keeping an eye on what your competition is exhibiting.

And if your competitors are at the show and you’re not, they are gaining significant knowledge that could give them the edge in a competitive market.

Network

The NRA Show is the largest business and idea exchange in the restaurant industry. Amassing over 65,000 people and 2,200 exhibitors, this show poses a unique opportunity for you to learn from and make lasting connections with fellow restaurateurs. Whether it is advice on restaurant marketing and geographical food customs, or simply, a business card from a recommended vendor, every connection can provide significant value.

Eat & Drink

Above all, this show celebrates the restaurant industry, and what’s a celebration without the accompaniment of great food and drink. Taste the creations from the most globally recognized chefs and restaurants and in merriment, bring your team together to honor your business and cheers to your successes.
