ELIZABETH, NJ – Gellert Global Group (GGG) will showcase its global sourcing capabilities and private-label expertise at the Private Label Manufacturers Association’s 2026 Trade Show, taking place November 16–17 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill.

A strategic partner for global sourcing

With products sourced from more than 60 countries, GGG helps retailers build compelling store-brand programs from the ground up. Its end-to-end capabilities span supplier selection and quality assurance, logistics, market testing, and developing customized product lines. GGG works with retailers to identify the right product, producer and country of origin for each program. Its portfolio spans specialty discoveries and everyday staples across both branded and private-label offerings, giving retailers the flexibility to address multiple price points, shopper needs and merchandising strategies.

“We source from almost every major region in Asia, South America and Europe,” said Dan Tufano, Chief Revenue Officer, Retail Center Store, Gellert Global Group. “There isn’t one best origin. The right source depends on the retailer’s goals and consumers, and that’s where we help them win.”

Products featured at PLMA 2026 GGG’s exhibit will highlight opportunities across several high-interest retail categories:

Tuna and seafood: Tuna remains the foundation of GGG’s business, supported by decades of private-label experience. The broader assortment includes tinned fish, salmon, sardines, smoked seafood and frozen fish, with options ranging from everyday value to premium.

Frozen fruit blends: Convenient, ready-to-blend combinations designed for breakfasts, snacks, and other everyday occasions. Frozen desserts: Globally inspired treats, including French crème brûlée and Korean soft cheesecakes.

Frozen vegetables: Retail staples and plant-protein options sourced with an emphasis on consistent quality and dependable supply.

Shelf-stable fruit & vegetables: Globally sourced canned and jarred produce, packed to private label specs for consistent quality and year-round supply.

Premium brands that inspire private-label innovation

Alongside its private label capabilities, Gellert Global Group will showcase select portfolio brands, including Casa Flores, a premium line of tapas-inspired products imported from Spain. Two Casa Flores products, Yellowfin Tuna Ventresca with Spanish Orange and Wild-Caught Octopus in Harissa Sauce, have been selected for PLMA’s New Product Expo Display within the World of Ideas, located in the Convention Center’s main lobby, where they will be prominently featured to all attendees during the show.

“Shoppers now want premium flavors, not just low prices,” said Maria Roemer, Director of Business Development. “Many retailers test specialty brands like Casa Flores, then trade shoppers up in their own label with higher-grade species, extra-virgin olive oil and bright flavors like lemon, herbs and chiles.”

Attendees can meet with GGG at Booth F1046 to discuss branded and private-label programs tailored to their customers, categories, and business objectives.
