New York, NY—The Specialty Food Association has canceled its 46th annual Winter Fancy Food Show scheduled for January 17-19, 2021 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco. Instead, SFA will go virtual with "Specialty Food Live!" on January 19-22, 2021.

“We’re excited about our new series of virtual events. We received great feedback from the September launch, including a request from buyers and makers during the event that we extend it by one day, which we happily did," said Bill Lynch, Interim President, Specialty Food Association in a press release.
