NFRA Convention 2026 starts on October 17, 2026.

The 2026 convention is at Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland.

The published attendee groups include retailer members, manufacturers, sales agents, logistics providers, suppliers, and industry executives.

It is most useful for frozen and refrigerated food sales agents, manufacturers and retailer buyers, since retailers get complimentary meeting rooms for appointments and the audience spans retailers, manufacturers, brokers, logistics providers and suppliers. It is a meeting-driven convention, so suppliers without accounts to review or products to introduce would get less from it than those with appointments to book.

Attendees at food industry conventions usually wear business professional or business casual, such as suits or blazers with open collars for meetings. The Gaylord National resort in October suggests comfortable shoes for moving between meeting rooms and a light coat for outdoor walks.
