NEW YORK — From cookware to kitchen gadgets and food storage, kitchenware will play a big role at PLMA’s 2023 Annual Private Label Trade Show.
Themed “The Store Brands Phenomenon,” the show will be held November 12-14 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago. With more than 1,500 exhibiting companies and 5,000 individuals attending, the show is the largest event for store brands in North America.
“At this year’s show, buyers will have access to exhibitor displays of today’s must-have kitchen gadgets, cookware, bakeware and much more,” said PLMA President Peggy Davies. “It is the ideal place to discover all types of kitchen goods that meet the needs of consumers in search of convenience, durability and value.”
Demand for kitchenware is growing at a time when more consumers are cooking at home due to hybrid work arrangements, health and wellness goals and budget constraints.
Among many other private brands on store shelves, there’s Made by Design food storage and bakeware from Target; Everyday Living meat and oven thermometers from Kroger; and True Living muffin pans, cake pans and cookware sets from Dollar General.
Sustainable private brand kitchen goods are cooking up a storm. Take products like Albertsons’ Open Nature compostable cutlery; and CVS’ compostable bamboo plates sold under the Total Home Earth Essentials brand.
