The Potato Expo is BACK and BETTER Than Ever

NPC Board Members in preparation for the official ribbon cutting ceremony to kick off the 2023 Potato Expo in Colorado.

The Annual Potato Expo, hosted by Evocati PR client: the National Potato Council, made a triumphant return as the North American potato industry gathered in Denver with over 1,800 attendees and 175 exhibitors. Evocati PR was honored to provide onsite coverage and amplification sharing the mission and story of American growers. 


NPC President Jared Balcom and CEO Kam Quarles praised everyone involved for making this the biggest expo to date outside of Las Vegas events. The highlight was definitely the This Spud's For You Celebrity Chef Competition which featured culinary celebrities Ted Allen, Simon Majumdar, and Duff Goldman delivering inspiring tributes to the beloved potato.

"This was the first time our team was together to support a client event," said Barrett Y. Bogue President & Founder at Evocati PR. "I'm super pumped by the results of our work including securing local news segments and the unique opportunity to watch Food Network personalities share their love of America's favorite vegetable to attendees. Our team went above and beyond. I could not be more proud of them and want to thank NPC for their faith in us." 


Evocati PR could not be happier to have been a part of this event and meet the fantastic people who make this $4.5 billion industry excel. You can read more about 2023's Potato Expo by NPC here: https://www.nationalpotatocouncil.org/potato-expo/
