Recommended exhibit sizes
Start with the sizes that usually make the most sense for this audience, then move directly into custom exhibits or the broader exhibit catalog.
Best for compact launches, disciplined messaging, and faster lead capture when staffing is tight.
A strong inline step-up when the program needs one better demo line plus a clearer front-of-house conversation zone.
A practical island footprint when the team needs open traffic on multiple sides without jumping straight to a very large frame package.
Useful when demos, hospitality, and private conversations need to coexist inside one engineered exhibit program.
A quick planning brief — the things that most shape a strong, on-budget exhibit at this show.
The National Restaurant Association Show 2026 took place May 16 through May 19 at McCormick Place in Chicago. The event brought foodservice operators, suppliers, equipment brands, technology providers, and hospitality teams together around new products, operations, and industry trends.
A restaurant and foodservice exhibit needs to make the offer easy to understand quickly while preserving room for product discovery, equipment demonstrations, sampling, meetings, and practical back-of-house storage. The right footprint depends on how much visitor interaction and product activity the program needs to support.
We organize the rental scope around the actual frame, graphics, counters, display areas, freight, labor, and post-show needs so teams can evaluate exhibit options with Chicago show-floor execution in mind.
Services
Design, fabrication, graphics, installation and dismantle, and storage are handled under one team so the show program stays coordinated and measurable.
Plan the exhibit around visitor flow, product display, demonstrations, conversation zones, and the operational details that keep the program useful during a busy restaurant-industry show.
Coordinate brand graphics, product presentation, counters, monitors, and optional LED surfaces so visitors can understand the offer quickly from the aisle.
Align shipping windows, material handling, installation, dismantle, and return routing around the actual venue requirements and event calendar.
Compare practical exhibit footprints and frame options before committing to graphics, crates, labor, and other show-floor requirements.
