What is SupplySide West?

Our Plascene team are again excited to be exhibiting at SupplySide West this year in Las Vegas.

The show is one of the most prominent trade shows in the health and nutrition industry. It serves as a pivotal gathering for industry leaders, manufacturers, and brands focused on dietary supplements, functional food and beverages, sports nutrition, personal care, and more. With its rich history and significant influence, SupplySide West has become a key event where businesses come to discover the latest trends, innovations, and partnerships that shape the future of the health and wellness market.


What SupplySide West Brings for Brands

Innovation at the Core


One of the key draws of SupplySide West is the sheer level of innovation on display. For brands, it's an unparalleled opportunity to discover the latest ingredients, technologies, and trends shaping the future of health and nutrition.


Ingredient Discovery

  • Brands can explore new and unique ingredients that may set their products apart from competitors. Whether it's a new plant-based protein source, a cutting-edge probiotic strain, or a revolutionary active compound for skincare, SupplySide West brings together the most innovative suppliers.
  • Trends and Consumer Insights: Attendees can tap into expert panels and workshops that provide deep insights into consumer behavior. With more people prioritizing wellness, immunity, sustainability, and personalized nutrition, these insights help brands align their product development with consumer expectations.


Networking and Strategic Partnerships


SupplySide West is the ultimate networking hub for brands. It provides an environment where meaningful partnerships can flourish—whether it’s securing a new supplier, forming a joint venture, or collaborating on a research project.


Supplier Relationships
  • Brands have the chance to meet suppliers face-to-face, allowing them to build relationships that can lead to long-term partnerships. This direct interaction also facilitates transparency, enabling brands to ensure their suppliers meet their quality standards and sustainability goals.
B2B Collaboration
  • SupplySide West offers a unique opportunity for cross-industry collaboration. Brands in adjacent markets, such as cosmetics or beverages, often find new avenues for growth by leveraging trends from the health and nutrition space.


Educational Opportunities and Thought Leadership


In addition to the expo hall, SupplySide West offers a rich program of educational content designed to help brands navigate the complexities of the health and nutrition industry.


Workshops and Seminars
  • From product development and formulation to marketing strategies and regulatory compliance, SupplySide West provides expert-led workshops and seminars on a range of topics. For brands, this is a valuable opportunity to stay up-to-date with the latest industry regulations and ensure their products comply with evolving standards.
Scientific Research and Innovation
  • The event features presentations on cutting-edge scientific research, giving brands access to the latest findings in nutrition science, product efficacy, and ingredient safety. This knowledge is critical for brands looking to develop products backed by solid scientific evidence.
Regulatory Guidance
  • For brands, understanding regulatory requirements is crucial to entering and succeeding in the market. SupplySide West offers sessions led by regulatory experts who provide insights into the latest FDA guidelines, international regulations, and best practices for labeling and marketing claims.


Market Expansion and Global Reach

SupplySide West is not only a national event but a global one, attracting participants from over 70 countries. For brands looking to expand internationally, the event serves as a gateway to new markets and distribution channels.

International Exposure
  • Brands can meet distributors, retailers, and suppliers from around the world, opening up opportunities for global expansion. This exposure can help brands test the waters in new markets and understand regional consumer preferences.
Global Trends
  • By interacting with international companies, brands can gain insights into global trends that may influence their product strategies. For example, the rising demand for plant-based products in Europe or the growing interest in traditional herbal remedies in Asia could inspire brands to adapt their offerings to meet these regional trends.
