The Crain’s Made in New York event is a unique, ticketed event which connects the small business food and beverage community of New York with retailers and buyers. More than that, this show is like no other—it is part trade show, part marketplace, part educational experience.
Who will attend: retailers, distributors, restaurateurs, hoteliers, investors, service providers and entrepreneurs looking to launch food start-ups.

It’s been over a month since the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce announced their first group on certified Brooklyn Made products and Granola Lab’s Gold status is starting to sink in: we’re feeling snazzy, shiny, and oh-so official. Many of our fellow Brooklyn manufacturers have made the Chamber’s list, with a rating of gold, silver, or bronze, depending on the percentage of their business that occurs in the borough, as well as other factors.
We’re so proud to be a part of Brooklyn’s resurgence as a manufacturing hub and grateful to the Chamber for drawing attention to GL and our fellow hard-working Brooklynites. And what a cool logo! See how the M in Made is an image of the Brooklyn Bridge? It’s a subtle design choice, as opposed to the garish overuse of the Bridge in many logos and advertising images.

The Summer Fancy Food Show is the Specialty Food Association’s major trade show of the year…and it’s HUGE! We are thrilled (and a tad nervous) about our debut at this Summer’s show. Granola Lab will be part of Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce‘s Brooklyn Pavilion, filled with, you guessed it, companies from our home borough.
The show runs from Sunday, June 29 through Tuesday, July 1 at the Javits Center in Manhattan’s far west side. The Brooklyn Pavilion is on the lower level. Find Granola Lab at Booth 4747B.
Granola Lab is seeking distribution in NYC and throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. We welcome communication and visits to our booth from distributors and buyers from across the USA!

Granola Lab is exhibiting at Summer Fancy Food Show this year for the very first time. The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring an entire pavilion of Brooklyn makers and we’re so pleased to be included amongst such a great roster of local food companies. If you’re attending, our booth is number 4747. Don’t be a stranger.
We’ll be attending this Friday’s local trade show as well. Brooklyn Eats is a worthy precursor to the big event, showcasing over 50 Brooklyn food producers. There’s lots to see, smell and, of course, eat! Brooklyn Eats is open to the public from 10 am until 3 pm, followed by a trade-only period from 3 to 5. It’s located at a major food manufacturing hub: the Pfizer Building at 630 Flushing Ave.
