Presented in collaboration with BC Food and Beverage, Good to Grow’s 4th annual From The Ground Up Trade Show is on May 26, 2022, 11 am-5 pm, in Vancouver in the PNE Forum.

This year’s trade show is bigger and better than ever as we expand from 37 exhibitors to 55+ exhibitors!

• broker;
• media focused on all things food, beverage, and local;
• investor interested in local food brands;

We created this 100% B.C. local industry-only event to connect you with talented local food and beverage processors and provide you the opportunity to be one of the first to see new and emerging B.C. food and beverage brands ready to hit the market.

All products will be BC made with a focus on innovation and a bonus on use of some or all local ingredients. Each vendor goes through a jury panel where all aspects of their products and business are evaluated to ensure they have the tools to support growth and increased distribution.

Awards for "Outstanding New Product" are announced from 5-530pm. Don't forget to vote before you go!

Your ticket includes all day parking and one drink ticket for the after party.
