When you exhibit at one of New Hope Network Tradeshows (Natural Products Expo West and East), Priority Points determine the order in which you can select a booth and/or hotel reservations are for the following year or years of that show.

Historical Points + Show Points (Current Booth Size Points + Integrated Marketing Points + Sponsorship Points) = Total Show Points

Historical Points are based on the number of years a company has exhibited at Natural Products Expos (East, West, Asia, NPA Market Place) and Engredea & SupplyExpo since 1992 (exception: Expo East 2001 exhibitors received two points); Healthy Foods International Expo in 2008; Natural Products Association MarketPlace/Natural MarketPlace from 2009 to 2013. A maximum of one point is earned for each past show. Historical points are the only points used for booth moves.

Show Points: Booth Points, Integrated Marketing Points, and Sponsorship are given for (applicable show) contracted booth space, sponsorship participation, and marketing solutions as outlined below. Show points are applicable to the current year only; after show participation you will only receive the one (1) historical point for that show. Show points DO NOT carry over to shows or years, they are show specific.

Integrated Marketing:
