“In today’s fast-paced and competitive grocery industry, retailers and brands must stay ahead of the curve when it comes to consumer trends to remain competitive,” noted Ari Goldsmith, KeHE’s VP of marketing and digital media. “The KeHE Summer Show is an optimal opportunity for retailers and brands to foster meaningful connections and learn about the biggest topics trending in the industry, while securing the best deals on products consumers will want to see this summer. The food trade shows are the largest manifestation of the KeHE brand, and we are excited to see it come to life in Salt Lake City.”

At the close of the show, KeHE’s Primal Kitchen-sponsored Party with a Purpose will take place at the Utah State Fairpark. Attendees can discuss the show’s insights, network and write encouraging notes to survivors of human trafficking.
