Day 1 was supposed to be a fill out phase sort of like game one of the NBA finals or round one of a boxing match, but I quickly found myself leaning in and before you knew it, I was off and running. There were over 2400 exhibitors, and I wish I could have visited them all, but I was lucky enough to visit a few and capture some media footage aired exclusively on RIDEPLAY tv as well as some personal footage to share with my IG family.
As a foodie, sweetaholic, & self-proclaimed snack-master, the past few weeks have been probably the most exciting for me in 2022 and believe me I live a pretty exciting life from tech investing to Hollywood. I attended the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City at the Javits Center.
For me once again, this was heaven in disguise as I connected with familiar brands and discovered some new ones as well. You can check some clips & reactions from my personal Instagram page where I highlighted some brands while sampling. Feel free to view the entire personal highlight stories HERE. Will take about 5 mins.
Catch some exiting coverage of this event exclusively only on RIDEPLAY tv the next time you take a rideshare! I was especially excited to visit the companies in the DEI space such as Ayo Foods, Green Sahara, Wild Wonder among others. Kudos to The Specialty Food Association for making space for these deserving and emerging companies.
Unfortunately, I did not get to visit every booth due to the lack of time but looking forward to covering again for the next one. Stay tuned for updates on our site and also on the platform itself the next time you are around one of our screens.
