SIAL Canada 2026 Exhibitor List

SIAL Canada 2026 runs from Wednesday 29 April to Friday 1 May 2026 — three consecutive days — at the Palais des congrès de Montréal, 1001 Place Jean-Paul-Riopelle, Montreal, Quebec. The venue is downtown, so hotels, restaurants and the city centre are within walking distance of the show floor. The 2026 edition is the 23rd edition of SIAL Canada.

The show is organised by Expo Canada France, also referred to as Expo Canada - France, on behalf of the SIAL Network. SIAL Canada is the Canadian edition within the wider SIAL Network of food and beverage exhibitions, and the network publishes its own newsroom commentary on the Montreal edition, including its description of 2026 as a record Montreal edition tied to North American momentum.

No. SIAL Canada 2026 is a B2B, trade-only event for the food, beverage and related agri-food sectors. Attendees are trade professionals rather than consumers, and access is handled through trade registration, with a registration flow published via the event's own tools and an Expoplanner link. If you are planning to attend, register in advance as a trade professional rather than arriving on the day expecting public admission.

Published event research puts SIAL Canada 2026 at roughly 850 exhibitors and around 26,000 attendees across the three days. These are expected figures rather than confirmed closing counts, since the 2026 edition has not yet taken place. Treat any pre-show number, including these, as provisional and confirm the final totals with the organiser or through the event's own directory closer to late April 2026.

SIAL Canada 2026 covers food, beverage and related agri-food sectors — the exhibitor roster is made up of companies exhibiting in those categories at the Palais des congrès. The show also runs a dedicated international exhibitor strand, so the list spans Canadian producers and processors as well as companies based outside Canada. A complete published sector breakdown for the 2026 edition is not available, which means the exhibitor list itself is the most reliable way to map which categories are represented.

Yes. The 2026 edition has an exhibitor directory hosted on the Swapcard platform, with individual exhibitor records visible there, and a separate registration flow published through an Expoplanner link. The organiser's own directory is the authority of record for who is exhibiting. Directory contents change as companies confirm and stand allocations shift, so check back closer to the 29 April opening rather than relying on an early listing.

The list serves buyers and sellers with distinct briefs. Retail category managers use it to filter food and beverage exhibitors against a spring range plan. Distributors covering Quebec, Ontario or wider Canada use it to group suppliers and pre-book meetings. Importers outside Canada use the country field to find Canadian producers, while foodservice buyers screen for formats that suit a kitchen rather than a grocery shelf. Exhibitors themselves use the same data to understand who else will be in the hall.

As a working document, not a final record. With roughly 850 exhibitors expected and the 2026 edition still ahead, rosters shift as companies confirm late and stand allocations move. Sector views for 2026 are built from the exhibitor list itself rather than an official published breakdown, and the roughly 26,000 attendees are visitors rather than exhibitors. Use the data to build a shortlist and a meeting schedule for 29 April to 1 May, and cross-check against the organiser's own directory.
