First Ever Made in U.S.A. Trade Show

INDIANAPOLIS (APRIL 9, 2019) – MADE IN AMERICA 2019, the first-ever exposition and celebratory event solely focusing on U.S. manufacturing and products made in the USA, will take place at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, October 3-6, 2019. With more than 800 exhibitors and 10,000 attendees expected, this four-day event will bring together the largest-ever network of industrial professionals, keynote speakers and conscious consumers for one common goal: raising awareness for the economic, environmental and community impact of American manufacturing.

“American-made machines and products are the backbone of America’s strength,” said President and CEO Don Buckner, Sr. “We take great pride in our ability to deliver above and beyond with the goods we produce. While everyone has a part of their own industry’s circle, we seldom find the opportunity to celebrate that unique craftsmanship in one place together.”

For this monumental event, more than 450,000 square feet of the Indiana Convention Center has been reserved to showcase American-made machines and products by 800 U.S. manufacturers. While all exhibitors will share a commonality in their U.S.-based productions, the variety of represented product categories and industries will be incredibly vast, ranging from aerospace and automobiles to apparel and textiles. This event will truly be the most comprehensive representation of American manufacturing and production ever in its purest form.

The Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) is cosponsoring the event. CPA, is non-partisan and represents more than 4.1 million households through its agricultural, manufacturing, and labor members. 

Michael Stumo, CEO of the CPA, said, “We’re very pleased to participate in the Made in America trade show. Consumers want to buy American-made products, and they understand the connection between good jobs at home and the viability of local producers. We highly recommend attending this important event and will be encouraging our members to attend and exhibit their wares as well.”

The Made in America Kickoff Show will take place on Thursday, October 3, 2019. This night will include live performances by top-selling American billboard artists and keynote speakers. Friday, October 4, will feature the past, present and future of American manufacturing, with speeches by industry leaders and a celebration honoring U.S. military veterans who helped lay the foundation for American manufacturing. The closing evening event on Saturday, October 5, will be the first annual “Made in America Awards” to honor the American manufacturing tradition and to recognize the accomplishments of American production heroes, the heart and soul of homegrown manufacturing.
