Chicago—The Private Label Manufacturers Association (PLMA) announced Monday the cancellation of its Private Label Trade Show here due to COVID-19.

The show was scheduled for Jan. 30-Feb. 1, 2022. Outbreak of the new Omicron variant, coupled with the negative effects of COVID-19 on business travel, prompted PLMA to scrap the show for a second time. It was originally scheduled to be here last month.

As a safer alternative, the Association will host PLMA Global, a new worldwide online trade show, set for March 28-31. Registration information will be available in January.

PLMA’s annual World of Private Label Show planned for May 31-June 1 in Amsterdam is still on, and the Association’s Chicago Trade Show will return Nov. 13-15, 2022.
