From our President

Peggy Davies

PLMA is changing because our industry is changing.

For decades, members and retailers have looked to PLMA for world-class trade shows. Today, they also expect timely research, executive education, strategic partnerships, public policy insights, and year-round opportunities to connect, learn, and grow.

To meet those expectations, we've engaged more than 60 member volunteers through nine strategic committees to help shape new programs, strengthen existing initiatives, and identify emerging opportunities for the association.

We're expanding educational programming, investing in original research, and building partnerships that deliver greater value to our members. One example is the upcoming Consumer Personal Care Insights report, reflecting PLMA's commitment to providing members with exclusive research and actionable insights to support better business decisions.

Our mission remains the same: to connect retailers and manufacturers. Our vision is expanding. PLMA is building on its legacy as the industry's premier trade show organizer while evolving into a year-round strategic leader for the private brand industry.
