SNAC International meetings and conferences, including SNAXPO, the annual SNAC International convention and trade show, are industry events and closed to the general public. They require an attendance fee to be paid by SNAC International members and other industry organizations. As such, these events are not automatically open to consumer-focused media outlets and organizations.
Those requesting media registration must be currently employed by an approved publication or news organization. Each organization is limited to no more than three media representatives, except newsletters, which are limited to one. Account representatives, sales executives, book authors, and engineers do not meet the criteria for media registration. You must fall under one of the following media guidelines to receive media registration:
Reporters and editors from business and industry magazines, newspapers, trade publications, and news services must provide a business card. Contributing editors and reporters must verify they have been retained to cover the SNAC International event by presenting a letter of assignment. Consumer-focused publications and news outlets will be admitted at the sole discretion of SNAC International.
Broadcast reporters and producers from news organizations must provide a business card and a letter of assignment. These individuals will be admitted at the sole discretion of SNAC International.
Freelance writers must verify they have been retained to cover the applicable SNAC International event by presenting a letter of assignment. These individuals will be admitted at the sole discretion of SNAC International.
Reporters from online publications must provide a business card and a letter of assignment. The Website must contain editorial content and cover snacking industry issues. Personal Web pages and blogs will not be accepted.
Newsletter reporters must verify they have been retained to cover the SNAC International event by presenting a letter of assignment. Newsletter publications will be limited to one media representative.
The deadline for advance registration is one week prior to the event. After this date, media representatives will need to register on-site at the SNAC International registration desk or press room.
All members of the media who have not registered in advance must register on-site. Please review the media qualifications to determine if you qualify for media registration. You must submit all documentation, as specified on this page. No exceptions will be made.
**Please Note: Even if you have qualified for SNAC International media credentials in the past, you must re-qualify for each subsequent SNAC International conference.
