Boulder, CO—Show organizers have announced that Natural Products Expo East will return to Baltimore next year. Since 2008, the tradeshow has been held in Boston, but will move down the East Coast in 2011 “to improve attendee and exhibitor experience and cut down on costs,” said Erica Stone, show manager. A criticism of the Boston location was that the convention center was too far from many hotels, and that the overall cost of food/accommodations in the area was too high.

The 2011 show, scheduled for September 21–24, will continue to co-locate with All Things Organic and The Organic Summit.
