Raising the Bar for 2020

The 2019 CR&B Show was truly an amazing event and we wanted to thank those that attended. The trade show floor was packed, the culinary and bartending competitions provided great entertainment, our education sessions were informative and inspiring. Furthermore, the food and beverage samples were off the charts with great energy and overall attendee and exhibitor interaction.

​

The bar has been set for 2020, but if history is any indication, the CR&B Show team is up to the task - and we hope to see old friends along with many new ones.

 

Please view the videos from the 2019 edition.
