Expo ANTAD Guadalajara

Expo ANTAD in Guadalajara is the premier trade fair for the retail, gastronomy, and hospitality sectors in Mexico and across Latin America. As a central platform for business meetings, innovations, and trade strategies, it brings together industry professionals from around the world each year to showcase the latest trends, cutting-edge technologies, and top-tier products.

Organized by the Asociación Nacional de Tiendas de Autoservicio y Departamentales (ANTAD), the exhibition provides an exclusive opportunity to actively shape the future of retail. The event focuses on key industry segments, including food and beverages—from fresh ingredients to innovative processed products—bakery goods and modern baking techniques, as well as healthy and fresh produce that meet the growing demands for nutrition and quality of life. Additionally, the expo serves as a global trade platform where producers and retailers from around the world present their products.

Another key highlight of Expo ANTAD is the presentation of new retail technologies, featuring modern solutions for logistics, last-mile services, and innovative packaging systems. The fair also showcases furniture and equipment for store design, optimizing retail spaces and enhancing the shopping experience.

A standout feature of the event is the annual ANTAD Entrepreneur Challenge Contest, which recognizes and promotes promising, innovative products with high market potential. Complementing the exhibition is a comprehensive conference and lecture program, offering in-depth expert insights on strategies, market analysis, future technologies, and consumer trends in retail, gastronomy, and hospitality.
