In a significant development for the plant-based industry, Plant Based World Expo North America, scheduled for September at the Javits Center in New York City, has secured commitments from two major exhibitors: Conagra and Oatly. These industry giants’ participation underscores the robustness, resilience, and continual expansion of the plant-based marketplace.

Conagra, a renowned food industry leader, is set to showcase its plant-based meat innovations through its subsidiary Gardein.

Oatly, a globally recognized name in the plant-based space, is gearing up to exhibit its innovative oat-milk offerings. As a publicly-traded company, Oatly’s participation highlights its strategic approach to engaging with the plant-based market and connecting with industry stakeholders.

“We decided to pursue the 2024 Plant Based World Expo because this honestly seems a like a ‘no brainer’ to us. It’s our target audience filled with like-minded brands and attendees alike. Plus, we have had several internal folks who have attended and recommended we participate”, says Erin Taylor, Brand Experiential Manager at Oatly. “Our overall objectives are to showcase our 2024 innovations, connect with individuals within our industry, new business leads/sales and to reinforce Oatly’s commitment to plant based.”
