TPE Changes Name, Increases Square Footage – Cigar News

The Annual Tobacco trade show TPE is changing things up for 2023, starting with its name. The show will still be called TPE, but instead of Tobacco Plus Expo, it now stands for Total Product Expo. The show is also expanding the types of products they feature as well as the square footage. Now, categories of products shown on the floor will include: snacks, beverages, Point of Sale items, general merchandise, gifts, and more.

TPE has been ranked as one of the fastest growing shows in the United States by Trade Show Executive Magazine, and has continually outperformed other consumer goods and retail tradeshows since 2017, according to the Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR).

We are really pleased with the increasing success of TPE, and are excited about the potential of our evolution to the Total Product Expo in 2023. Every year we seek feedback from the show, and have consistently heard attendees ask for category expansion so more business can get done in one shot. This year we are answering the call, giving our customers an array of new exhibitors with products that their customers want and need. TPE23. We think the name has a nice ring to it.

TPE23 is increasing their show floor by 30%, and will feature a dedicated space for the new brands and product categories. TPE23 will be held February 22 – February 24, 2023 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Attendee registration officially opens in September 2022.
