2026 Conference Updates
Dear FEDA members and industry partners,
Our industry continues to evolve quickly — shaped by disruptive technologies, changing customer expectations, and new business models. The 2026 FEDA Executive Leadership Conference is designed to help you navigate those shifts while strengthening the relationships that matter most. I invite you to join us Sept. 15–18 at the Grand Hyatt Deer Valley in Park City, Utah, for an event focused driving insight and developing forward-looking strategies.
This premier gathering brings together top executives from across the foodservice equipment and supplies industry to exchange ideas, explore new opportunities and build partnerships that drive results. With a thoughtful mix of structured discussions and informal networking, the conference creates space for dealers and manufacturers to collaborate, compare approaches, and address shared challenges in a practical way.
We’re also excited to welcome special guest speaker Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple. Wozniak helped launch one of the most influential technology companies in history, and his perspective on innovation, problem-solving, and building organizations that embrace new ideas remains highly relevant for today’s business leaders. Executives will gain insight into how breakthrough thinking and a culture of experimentation can translate into long-term competitive advantage.
In a market that rewards adaptability and strong leadership, opportunities to learn from peers and visionary innovators are invaluable. Join us at the 2026 FEDA Executive Leadership Conference to gain perspective, strengthen your network, and position your organization for what comes next.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Marc Tell
