Exhibit A: Design Group recently attended the Canadian Health Food Association (CHFA) Now Vancouver tradeshow alongside one of its retail clients, using the event as an essential platform for research ahead of a major retail product launch later this year.

With more than 900 exhibitors and over 3,000 industry professionals in attendance, the CHFA Now event was the ideal environment for Exhibit A to gather valuable insights and trends to guide the next phase of their client’s retail strategy.

The CHFA Now Vancouver, held at the Vancouver Convention Centre East, is recognized as one of Canada’s largest and most influential trade events showcasing the latest products in health and wellness. The three day event provided Exhibit A with a wealth of market intelligence, helping to refine the retail brand and product offerings ahead of their client’s upcoming product launch.

“Being able to attend CHFA Now alongside our client was an invaluable opportunity to gain direct insight into emerging trends and to connect with industry leaders in the natural and wellness space,” says Cory Ripley, Creative Director and Principal of Exhibit A: Design Group.

“The wealth of information and inspiration we gathered will be instrumental as we prepare for our client’s varied products to hit retail shelves later this year.”

Exhibit A’s attendance to the tradeshow marks a critical step in its ongoing commitment to ensuring that the food and beverage brands it works with remain at the forefront of their markets. By attending events like CHFA Now, the design team gains a deep understanding of consumer preferences and industry trends, which then informs their strategic approach to packaging, branding, and product presentation.

“The show provided us with a unique opportunity to observe and understand the competitive landscape, network with retailers, and see firsthand how upcoming and top brands across Canada are presenting their products to consumers”, Ripley adds.

“As we prepare for our client’s retail launch, we can confidently integrate these insights into our future brand and marketing strategies to ensure that their products stand out in each sector.”

Exhibit A’s design team, known for their expertise in brand strategy and packaging design, is now using the data and insights from this year’s CHFA Now event to refine the client’s retail strategy, ensuring that the upcoming product launch is both market-ready and poised for success.

The studios hands-on approach to research and development is an essential part of their brand discovery and development platform entitled HUE™ (for HUman Experience), enabling them to create products that resonate with modern, health-conscious consumers.
