77th Annual Production Conference | April 15-17, 2024
Lancaster County Convention Center, Lancaster, PA
The PMCA Annual Production Conference is a premier technical conference for the confectionery and snack industry. Each presentation in our program is reviewed by a committee to ensure high-quality information on essential and trending topics.
““This was my first year and I will absolutely be going back! I loved the variety of topics that were covered…it was great to hear other people’s perspective and hear the little things that got my gears turning about random problems. I LOVED how open everyone was to just introducing themselves and made me feel right at home. I left with a very happy heart, and I was sad it was over!” – 2023 Conference Attendee
