Knott's Fine Foods Showcases Products at Trade Shows in New Orleans and Muscle Shoals
PARIS, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Knott's Fine Foods recently expanded its reach traveling to two prominent annual trade shows, the International Dairy-Deli-Bakery Association (IDDBA) in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the Tennessee Grocers & Convenience Store Association (TGCSA) in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to promote its products and engage with the industry.
"Part of ensuring the growth and expansion of Knott's is to actively promote ourselves, and these trade shows provide a wonderful opportunity to engage with vendors and industry leaders who are interested in partnering with us," CEO Josh Knott said. "These shows offer the chance to network and discuss industry trends."
During the IDDBA trade show, Knott's was recognized as a Bronze sponsor of the What's in Store Live showcase which included panels, discussions and a refrigerated display case that featured sponsors' products. Knott's selected its Cowboy Caviar and Fried Pickle Dip to showcase.
The annual trade show was held at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans where Knott's was among 1,000 booths. Organizers said it was the largest number of vendors in recent years and that this year included 238 first-time vendors. In addition to the trade show floor, several breakout sessions were held to discuss trends in the industry with notable celebrities including Carla Hall ("The Chew," "Top Chef"), Claire Saffitz (Food Writer, YouTube) and Buddy Valestro ("Cake Boss," Carlo's Bakery).
The Knott's team interacted with some of the guest celebrities during the conference, taking photos with Saffitz and Hall, who is a native Tennesseean and a known cheese lover including pimento cheese.
"This is my 15th trade show and it's always enjoyable to show what we have to offer and interact with so many inspiring people in our industry," said Chloe Knott, sales and marketing lead of Knott's Fine Foods. It was a family affair at IDDBA for the Knott's team with Chloe's sisters, Rachel and Jessica, working the booth as well.
Following three days at IDDBA, the team traveled to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, for the TGCSA Convention & Expo. Amy Knott and Stacy Maatman joined the rest of the team for this event.
Knott's was a Gold Partner sponsor at the TGCSA, which was held at the Renaissance Shoals Resort, Alabama, where there were 60 main floor exhibitors and 32 exhibitors in the Pick Tennessee Pavilion which highlighted locally grown and produced Tennessee products.
"Being a part of TGCSA keeps us connected with other in-state companies in our industry to discuss trends and explore potential partnerships. It's always a valuable time together," Josh Knott said.
Attendees at this conference received free samples of foods, beverages, ice creams, pastries, cleaning supplies, etc. A free caricature artist offered memorable drawings of guests, and massage chairs were available to help participants recharge after a long day walking the display floor. Additionally, a casino area with Blackjack and Roulette offered attendees a chance to exchange chip winnings for door prizes.
During the convention's closing remarks, John Ross, president and CEO of the Independent Grocers Alliance (IGA), reminded participating grocers, retailers and small-business owners about the power inherent in local businesses. "If you are buying local, if you're connecting with local providers and suppliers, and if you're keeping the money in your community and your country, that is an enormous competitive advantage," Ross reminded his audience. "The shopper believes that if I buy within my community, it's better, it's fresher, it tastes better, it's more sustainable, and it makes America stronger. That is an enormous superpower."
Family-owned and operated since 1947, Knott's Foods Inc. began in the kitchen of Cedric and Mildred Knott in Paris. Four generations of the Knott family have led the West Tennessee team since.

Hudbay Minerals (HBM) Climbs 15% on Stellar Earnings, $600-Million Investment From Mitsubishi
We recently published . Hudbay Minerals Inc. (NYSE:HBM) is one of the best-performing stocks on Wednesday. Hudbay Minerals grew its share prices for a second day on Wednesday, up 15.03 percent to close at $11.33 apiece, following an impressive earnings performance and a $600-million investment from Mitsubishi Corp. In its updated report, Hudbay Minerals Inc. (NYSE:HBM) said it swung to a net income attributable to shareholders of $117.7 million from an attributable net loss of $16.5 million in the same period last year, driven by higher gross margins and strong cost control. Revenues increased by 26 percent to $536.4 million from $425.5 million year-on-year. 'With the strong performance in the first half of the year, we are reaffirming our full year consolidated production guidance and are favourably tracking well below our full year consolidated cost guidance for 2025,' said Hudbay Minerals Inc. (NYSE:HBM) President and CEO Peter Kukielski. For the full-year period, the company is targeting to produce between 117,000 and 149,000 tons of copper, as well as 247,500 to 308,000 ounces of gold. In other news, Hudbay Minerals Inc. (NYSE:HBM) was able to raise $600 million in fresh funds from Mitsubishi Corp. after the latter acquired a 30-percent stake in Copper World LLC. Under the agreement, Mitsubishi will pay an upfront cash of $420 million, with the balance to serve as a matching contribution within an 18-month period. While we acknowledge the potential of HBM as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
