World Floral Expo 2018

HPP Exhibitions' 2018 international flower trade show World Floral Expo (WFE) will be coming to Chicago, IL at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center (Rosemont, IL), from March 20-22.  Be a part of and plan to visit CalFlowers' members who will demonstrate how Californians support:

More Americans, enjoying more flowers, more often

The California cut flower industry recognizes the opportunity to exhibit in the Midwest, connecting with existing customers and meeting new ones.  To facilitate these important connections, HPP Exhibitions is again providing CalFlowers members special rates to exhibit at the 2018 show:

A section of exhibit space has been set aside to feature and celebrate the products of all CalFlowers members, including our out-of-state growers.

CalFlowers, the trade association in the U.S. for the distribution of flowers and floral products across the country, also notes that while the California Pavilion will feature an impressive collection of cut flowers grown in the state, it will also include CalFlowers’ distributor members.
