The National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show, an event to learn about the latest in equipment, supplies, technology, and emerging trends in the restaurant industry, will take place from May 21-24, 2022, at McCormick Place in Chicago.

“The 2022 National Restaurant Association Show is well on its way to becoming the best yet — after the unprecedented challenges the industry has faced over the past year-and-a-half, we couldn’t be more excited to welcome everyone back to Chicago in May,” said Tom Cindric, president of Winsight Exhibitions. “Attendees will have the opportunity to taste exciting and unique products, interact with new equipment innovations, create business connections with key suppliers, access education on today’s biggest topics, and gain access to invaluable peer-to-peer networking. It is sure to be the most highly anticipated show to date, and we can’t wait to bring our community back together.”

The National Restaurant Association Show is the place to find creative new solutions to today’s challenges in the restaurant industry, from the latest food and beverage trends to emerging technologies to operational innovations that will boost the bottom line. The Show’s expert-led education program will feature timely sessions and deep-dive workshops to help build the future of the industry, with focuses on ghost kitchens and virtual brands, restaurant technology, culinary insights, operations solutions, new consumer trends, wellness, workforce recruitment and development, and more.

This year, the Show will feature over 500 new exhibitors and more than 1,000 returning exhibitors in over 600,000-square-feet of show floor space. Refrigeration equipment and ice machine exhibitors will include Hoshizaki, Continental Refrigerator, Ice-o-Matic, Scotsman, TOR REY Refrigeration, and Manitowoc, to name a few.

“We are thrilled to welcome over 500 new exhibitors to the National Restaurant Association Show,” said Cindric. “While the Show has a long-standing reputation for facilitating unmatched connections, this year’s event will be like no other, as we bring the foodservice community back together on our lively show floor.”
