Expo Pack Guadalajara

Expo Pack Guadalajara is the leading trade fair for packaging and processing technologies in Latin America. It offers companies from around the world a specialized platform to showcase innovations, exchange knowledge, and establish international business relationships.

Every two years, the Guadalajara Exhibition Center in the Mexican state of Jalisco opens its doors to this internationally significant industry event. The show is organized by PMMI – The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, a global organization that promotes technological innovation and supports knowledge transfer in the packaging and processing sectors.

The event combines the latest industry trends with practical, hands-on solutions. It features proven approaches for processing, packaging, storage, and distribution, while also focusing on forward-looking topics such as sustainability and the circular economy. The “Expo Pack Verde” program highlights eco-friendly technologies and materials. Digital transformation is showcased in a dedicated pavilion, featuring advancements in artificial intelligence, connected systems, cloud solutions, and virtual reality. The exhibition is further enriched by innovative materials and modern packaging concepts, including flexible packaging, resource-efficient materials, and premium display solutions.

State-of-the-art machinery, systems, components, and materials are on display, covering every step of the packaging and processing journey – from raw materials to finished products. Companies from the food and beverage industry, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, as well as the chemical, textile, and automotive sectors are particularly well represented. The event is aimed at a qualified professional audience – decision-makers, technicians, buyers, and developers – who are actively seeking innovative solutions and new business partnerships.

Expo Pack Guadalajara is part of the Pack Expo trade show series, which also includes events in Las Vegas, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Mexico City. This network gives international exhibitors direct access to the growing Latin American market, with Mexico serving as a central industrial hub for the region.

A diverse continuing education program complements the trade show experience. Keynotes, workshops, and networking formats – such as the Packaging and Processing Women’s Leadership Network (PPWLN) and the Young Professionals Network – foster intergenerational and cross-industry exchange.

The venue, Expo Guadalajara, is one of the most modern exhibition centers in Latin America. It is centrally located in the economically vibrant city of Guadalajara, which is well connected via an international airport and a comprehensive public transportation network. Visitors and exhibitors can also look forward to an inspiring cultural and culinary environment.

With its clear focus on innovation, knowledge transfer, and sustainable development, Expo Pack Guadalajara is much more than just a trade show – it is considered a key driver for the entire packaging and processing industry in Mexico and beyond.

The Expo Pack take place biennially, and therefore presumably in June 2027 in Guadalajara.
