KeHE Distributors will host its 2026 Holiday Show June 10‑11 in Chicago, with more than 900 exhibitors and 1,000 retailers expected.
The event also offers virtual access on KeHE CONNECT through June 19. The show focuses on innovation, consumer trends, and seasonal buying, with exclusive show‑only deals designed to help independent retailers and regional chains maximize seasonal opportunities.
“Retailers are navigating elevated consumer expectations, from global flavor exploration and wellness‑focused purchasing to value‑conscious shopping habits,” said Ari Goldsmith, VP of marketing and digital media at KeHE.
“The Holiday Show creates an environment where our partners can discover what’s next, build meaningful connections and gain practical insights that help them stay competitive in a changing marketplace.”
The show features a Global Inspirations Pavilion highlighting international brands and KeHE’s partnerships with global food industry events including SIAL, Greece Food Expo, Alimentaria, and Cibus/Tuttofood. KeHE‑owned Tree of Life USA, an importer of global food innovation, will be featured in the Fresh Pavilion (Booth No. 5101), showcasing internationally-sourced specialty cheeses and exclusive products.
