In early March, members of the gourmet food industry converged upon Chicago for the Fancy Food Show, and VinCenzo was there, keeping up with everything new in fancy food. |

| "The show has really grown since last year," said VinCenzo salesman, Joe Marlovits. "I think the Chicago Fancy Food Show is an up and coming show that's going to start to rival the other Fancy Food Shows. I saw a lot of businesses exhibiting there that don't exhibit in New York or San Francisco." |

While there, Marlovits and VinCenzo CEO Keith Armato took time to visit some of their customers, including the Grand Avenue Chocolates booth, where a number of VinCenzo tins were on display. "We did a series of six inch square cookie tins for them in varying colors, as well as a oval tin, and a brand new hinged tin for their new graham cookie," said Marlovits. "They looked really nice on display." |

He also took some time to chat with Grand Avenue's Rachel Dunn, about present and future projects. "When we come to a show like this, first we want to discuss work with existing clients, and we also want to reach out and find other people who are looking to introduce metal packaging to complement their product." |

| When asked how he felt about the show, Marlovits replied, "I thought it went great. The Chicago shows are getting better and better, and since it's our home turf, it gives us a chance to bring people in to visit and really spend some time with them, which is always good." As an afterthought, Marlovits added, "And the food isn't half bad, either!" |
