After working with officials at McCormick Place, the ALL CANDY EXPO was able to adjust the date pattern for 2009, which will also offer a more convenient travel schedule around the Memorial Day weekend. The new dates for the 2009 ALL CANDY EXPO are Tuesday, May 19 through Thursday, May 21.

"By ensuring more convenient travel dates for show participants and attendees, EXPO attendance will continue to grow next year," says Larry Graham, president of the National Confectioners Association (NCA), which sponsors the EXPO.
The show will retain its three-day format at Chicago's McCormick Place West Building.

In 2008, the EXPO featured nearly 450 confectionery and snack companies from around the world, and attracted nearly 12,000 qualified industry professionals from 69 countries who came to get a sneak peek of over 2,000 new snack and confectionery items before they hit store shelves.
