Tips for the show

[Tip] Booth appointments aren’t necessary, and it’s customary to have drop-ins. However, if you want to ensure you speak to a specific person, it’s best to reach out in the weeks before the show to schedule a meeting through the mobile app. 

[Tip] Ensure that your badge is flipped the correct way before you walk up to a booth so they can see your name. 

[Tip] Download the mobile app to leverage matchmaking opportunities and book meetings with exhibiting companies.

[Tip] Attire for SupplySide Connect New Jersey is business casual. Temperatures can fluctuate in the Expo Hall so bring layers. And remember, the Expo Hall is large and concrete — bring comfortable shoes to avoid blisters and foot pain. 

[Tip] Bring a reusable water bottle! Water stations will be available throughout the show floor and public space to refill your bottle. Be sure to drink plenty of water during the event.
