Beverage Trade Network organizes Cannabis Drinks Expo in San Francisco on July 25, 2019. It will be the first event to tackle the issue head-on. Cannabis Drinks Expo will give the worldwide drinks industry, and North America in particular, the chance to come together and look at ways it can address legalised cannabis and find ways to start the fight back against this enormous threat to the future of the overall industry.

It will be the first time that drinks producers, manufacturers, brand owners, distilleries and brewers can come together and collectively look at ways they can benefit from legalised cannabis. It will provide a platform and meeting place for major players within the legal cannabis sector to come forward, meet their counterparts within the drinks industry, share ideas and potentially find ways they can work together. Assess, analyse and implement ways they can both individually and together take advantage of what is effectively a new major consumer goods market.

It is a truly must-attend event for leading players from all areas of the main drinks industry as well as all the other support sectors and services that rely on it. Cannabis Drinks Expo will help you grow your business, network with professionals and learn about the new trends and key market forecasts.

WHY ATTEND THE CANNABIS DRINKS EXPO?

Grow your business

The major theme of the Cannabis Drinks Expo will be on growing your business and growing your bottom line. If you’re a brand owner, or a distillery or brewery looking for an on-ramp to the very aggressively growing U.S. cannabis industry, this event will provide the perfect platform for growth.

Networking is the Key

The participants of the first-ever Cannabis Drinks Expo will include professionals involved in the development, production, distribution and retailing of cannabis-related drinks products. If you are looking for new partners to enter a new niche or sector, this is the place to be. Over a two-day period, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet like-minded professionals, all of them united in their commitment to growing the U.S. cannabis industry. Moreover, you will be able to grow your circle of connections to include political and legal analysts, medical researchers, and brand owners from other industries, especially the alcoholic beverage industry. The connections you walk away with from the Cannabis Drinks Expo could help you launch an important new product category in 2019.

Be updated with the trends and key market forecasts

In addition to the trade show floor, there will be a business conference track to the two-day expo. As part of this conference, leading speakers within the cannabis industry will share their insights and analysis about how to create, grow and develop an exciting new consumer market. The Cannabis Drinks Expo will be where you can get the latest market forecasts and hear directly from the influential professionals who have helped to launch a young, dynamic new market.

Cannabis Drinks Expo will be a melting pot of seminars, debates, and TED-style talks from political and medical leaders, major drinks industry figures, retailers, restaurant and bar chains, brand developers, FMCG consumer experts, and future trends, analysts and cultural commentators.
