After nearly four decades of serving the natural and organic CPG industry, Informa Markets’ New Hope Network announced that the 2023 Natural Products Expo East will be its final edition. Natural Products Expo West will continue to take place annually in Anaheim, Calif. Since its inception in 1985, Natural Products Expo East has stood as a pillar in the natural and organic CPG sector, providing an invaluable platform for thousands of retailers' product sourcing needs, propelling emerging brands onto the national stage, and fostering partnerships between buyers and brands that have empowered consumers to make more conscious choices. The show has found homes across the East Coast, including Washington DC, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia, where the final edition of the show will take place this week.

The sunset of Natural Products Expo East coincides with a positive and transformative development for the natural and organic products industry – the introduction of an entirely new event format next year that leverages a more tailored and intentional approach to connection and product discovery.

The event, Newtopia Now, is designed to provide more opportunities for brands to meaningfully participate, regardless of where they are in their lifecycle. Newtopia Now will offer curated matchmaking within a diverse community of buyers, brands, and partners, increased avenues for new and emerging brands to participate, imaginative new product discovery opportunities, and the chance for industry leaders to co-create the future of the CPG industry alongside their fellow Newtopians. 

Newtopia Now will launch August 6-8, 2024, in Savannah, Ga.
