Wyoming organic, natural and specialty products sought for Colorado Restaurant show

CHEYENNE – The Wyoming Business Council’s Agribusiness Division offers booth space to producers of Wyoming organic, natural or specialty products during the Colorado Restaurant Association’s WestEx show in Denver, May 15.

The Business Council will take participants’ product literature or small amounts of samples for display in their booth during the expo. There is a $100 fee for each participant and the deadline to submit products or literature is April 10. Display space is limited and will be awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis.

The WestEx show features restaurant chefs and buyers from around Colorado and averages 10,000 attendees each year. WestEx highlights the latest food and beverage products as well as food service equipment each year.

“To attend and exhibit at this show can cost in upwards of $2,500 without the help of the Wyoming Business Council,” said Ted Craig, value-added marketing program manager for the Wyoming Business Council. “WestEx is an excellent opportunity for Wyoming to showcase premium organic, natural and specialty products.”

Craig will be manning the booth at WestEx for the Business Council and is also the contact for companies interested in having their products and literature displayed at WestEx. He can be contacted at 307.777.6578.

The mission of the Wyoming Business Council is to facilitate the economic growth of Wyoming. For more information, please visit the Web site at www.wyomingbusiness.org.
