‘The Place To Be’
The American Beverage Association says Interbev 2006 will be “the place to be” for those in the beverage marketplace. InterBev 2006 will be held at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas Oct. 23-25 under the theme “Let the Sales Pour In.” Exhibitor space is currently available and registration will open in June.
Since re-acquiring the show late last year, the
association has refocused InterBev as a more intimate event that will zero
in on issues important to beverage manufacturers, with conference
programming designed to appeal to owners and operators of bottling
facilities, plant managers, engineers, quality assurance managers and
production supervisors. Exhibits will feature machinery, equipment and
supplies that represent supplier innovations and new technologies. In
addition, show planners say there will be opportunities for beverage
processors seeking distribution.
The association has selected an advisory committee comprising producers and suppliers to ensure
the show’s content is “highly relevant and reflective of the
marketplace it serves.” Programming will feature five educational
tracks — General Management, Trends, Logistics, Plant Design and
Formulation — and has allowed for conflict-free hours for attending
both conference programs and exhibitions. The show floor at the Sands Expo
Center will cover 40,000 to 50,000 square feet and feature an American
Beverage Association Networking Center. BI
