EXHIBIT HALL Etiquette The NYSNA Exhibit Hall is guaranteed to be an exciting experience – but it also can be a little overwhelming, especially for first- timers. Everywhere you turn, there’s something to taste, touch, smell and learn about!

Take the time to listen to what the exhibitors have to say about their products. Be honest about your program’s needs. Relay your interest about the product and the company. Don’t take advantage by hoarding extra giveaways or samples. If you want to bring shelf-stable samples back home to test with other team members, wait until the end of the Exhibit Hall hours to ask vendors if they have excess to spare. Be aware of your district’s policy for personal acceptance of contest prizes from exhibitors. Always be sure to thank the vendors for attending conference, supporting NYSNA and partnering with you to serve the children. No matter your job title and responsibilities, all school nutrition team members are expected to be ambassadors of their profession and demonstrated experts in the business. Exhibitors return year after year because they understand the benefits of this unique opportunity to meet individually with thousands of school nutrition professionals – both decision-makers and decision-influencers. With your help, they’ll continue to see exhibiting at conference as a worth while investment, ensuring that it’s the best state – wide resource available to you every summer!
