EXPO PACK México Sets New Bar
Reston, Va.; June 24, 2015 — The 30th Anniversary edition of EXPO PACK México closed June 19 as
the largest and most international edition in its history, according to show owner & producer PMMI, The
Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.
Over 25,000 visitors attended the third consecutive sold-out show at Centro Banamex, Mexico City,
visiting more than 1,000 exhibitor companies occupying more than 19,000 net square meters (~204,500
square feet) of exhibit space. Over the show’s four days, buyers in food and beverage, pharmaceutical,
personal care, chemical, electronics, textiles, and automotive sectors, among others, discovered solutions
to their processing and packaging challenges.
“EXPO PACK México’s success speaks to the benefits attendees from Mexican and Latin American
companies find when they attend,” says Charles D. Yuska, president and CEO, PMMI. “It offers an
opportunity to update and improve their production processes and to ensure the positioning of their
products worldwide.”
Mexican and Latin American attendees, including buying groups from Guatemala, Costa Rica and
Colombia, took advantage of the diversity of the global pavilions. The PMMI pavilion alone covered over
2,130 net square meters (~22,900 square feet) and included 86 member companies from the U.S.,
Canada and Mexico. Additional international pavilions housed representatives from Argentina, Brazil,
Colombia, China, Spain, France, Guatemala, India and Italy. EXPO PACK México 2015 also saw the
Mexico City debut of the Innovation Stage. Now a staple of the PACK EXPO family of shows, the
educational offerings found at the Innovation Stage received the same standing room only attendance as
its offerings at EXPO PACK Guadalajara, PACK EXPO International, Pharma EXPO and PACK EXPO
Las Vegas.
PMMI used the EXPO PACK México stage to announce that beginning in 2017, EXPO PACK
Guadalajara and EXPO PACK México will alternate years. The next edition of EXPO PACK México
(Mexico City, Centro Banamex) takes place May 17-20, 2016, while EXPO PACK Guadalajara (Expo
