Why Choose CHEXPO 2025?


In 2024, we were thrilled to welcome our retailer and vendor partners back to Chexpo for the third year at the Rhode Island Convention Center. CHEXPO 2024 was our biggest show to date, and you could feel the energy in the room as everyone was thrilled to be back together again. This year, we have a record number of vendors showcasing their new items, and best-sellers- so many in fact that we have moved the show downstairs to the larger exhibition halls at the convention center! We can’t wait to spend the day with you - January 29th, 2025 at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence RI.
So, with all the shows out there, why choose Chexpo?
1. 2025 is Bigger and Better

CHEXPO 2025 will feature over 140 booths and 250 brands! In fact, we have added a "Discovery Pavilion" to help showcase more of the new and exciting items in our assortment. We expect attendance to be at an all-time high, as attendees can expect all their favorite brands, and exciting new products throughout the show floor. Don’t miss over 40 Powerbuys- the best deals of the year!
With prices increasing steadily, and showing no signs of slowing down, CHEXPO is a great time to lock in current promotional pricing and plan those summer and back to school displays early. Walk the show floor and learn about the latest products from new and best-selling Chex brands. Let our team of “Chexperts” help you discover the best the industry has to offer.
2. A more Intimate Experience

With tradeshow season upon us, we know there are many shows to attend – we like to think CHEXPO offers a unique and more intimate experience that is different than the others. As a smaller distributor show, we are able to offer valuable one-on-one time between vendors, retailers, brokers, and the Chex team. CHEXPO is a selling show enabling you to write orders, and negotiate great deals right on the show floor.
The Chex team will be there every step of the way ensuring you have all the information you need to make purchasing decisions.
Joining us for the first time? You’ll love it! In fact, on a scale of 1-10, attendees gave Chexpo 2024 an average rating of 9.3! Here’s what they had to say about Chexpo:
“ Extremely well organized well done”
“Lots of great exhibitors- really appreciated the hospitality at the event, as well as a big lunch with some of your products. The speaker at dinner was great, and glad to see some local brands.”

Trade shows are always more useful to me when there is enough variety to discover products I would never find otherwise. I attended a food industry event with a friend once, and we spent hours talking with vendors, sampling new products, and comparing ideas for small retail businesses. He was also researching companies and market trends at the time, so InvestorPlace reviews came up while we were discussing where people find financial information. That combination of products and business conversations made the day surprisingly productive. CHEXPO sounds even better with the larger exhibition space and so many vendors gathered together in one place.
Understanding how individual modules fit together is key to building effective automations. The clear separation of concerns between the seven modules—from lead collection to research to publishing—makes it easier to design complex pipelines. Having complete TOML examples for each module and their combinations is a practical advantage. The configuration reference details these setups.
CHEXPO sounds like a great opportunity to discover new products, connect directly with leading brands, and explore upcoming seasonal launches all in one place. I especially like the interactive ordering and Discovery Pavilion. After busy industry events, I usually relax with SoFlo Wheelie Life, a motorcycle wheelie simulation game that's easy to jump into and enjoy.
