If SupplySide Global 2026 is on your radar, the first things you’ll want nailed down are the when and the where. The short version: late October, in Las Vegas. But there’s a little more worth knowing before you book flights, from the exact dates and venue to what actually happens once you’re inside. Here’s everything in one place, plus where to find us while you’re there.
What Is SupplySide Global?
SupplySide Global is the largest health and nutrition trade show in North America. You might know it by its old name, SupplySide West. This event brings food formulators, manufacturers
The whole point of it is to help people in the industry do business in one place. Buyers come to find new ingredients. Suppliers come to meet the brands they want to work with. Formulators come to see what’s new and what’s next. Sourcing an ingredient can normally take months of emails and samples, and this show basically squeezes all of that into a few days on one floor.
When and Where Is It Happening?
Here’s everything in one place so you don’t have to go digging:
| Detail | Information |
| Event | SupplySide Global 2026 (formerly SupplySide West) |
| Expo hall | October 28–30, 2026 |
| Education sessions | October 26–30, 2026 |
| Where | Mandalay Bay Convention Center, Las Vegas |
| Find Shafi Gluco Chem at | Booth 2250 |
This year they’ve stretched the expo hall to three full days, which is a day more than before. That just means more time to actually see everything without feeling rushed.
What Happens at the Event
Three things, really: sourcing, learning, and meeting people. Here’s how each plays out.
- Sourcing on the show floor. More than 1,600 exhibitors show their ingredients and services, from raw materials to manufacturing, packaging, and lab testing. They’re grouped by ingredient type, so you’re not wandering around trying to find what you need.
- Learning in the sessions. The talks cover where the industry is going, things like clean-label formulation, sustainable sourcing, plant-based nutrition, and sports nutrition.
- Meeting people everywhere else. With over 20,000 people there, a lot of the real value happens in the hallways and coffee lines. That’s usually where the good partnerships start.
Who Should Attend
If sourcing ingredients or developing products is part of your job, then yes, it’s worth it. This is genuinely where your industry shows up. It’s most useful if you’re one of these:
- A food or beverage brand looking for functional or clean-label ingredients
- A supplement company working on new formulas or new markets
- A contract manufacturer or product developer building something new
- Part of an R&D, sourcing, or marketing team making the calls
Basically, if your work touches ingredients or formulation in food, drinks, or supplements, this is your crowd.

What You’ll Walk Away With

A Few Tips Before You Go
A show this big goes better with a little prep. Register ahead of time, sort out a hotel near Mandalay Bay early (they fill up), and jot down the exhibitors you actually want to see before you land. With three days on the floor and a full schedule of talks, knowing your priorities is what keeps the trip from getting away from you.
So, if you’ll be there, come find us. Book a meeting with the Shafi Gluco Chem team at booth 2250, and we’ll make time to talk properly.
