AFCP Conference & Trade Show
Each year, AFCP coordinates the largest conference and trade show in the free paper industry. Always held in the best hotels in the hottest locations, the conference is no vacation. Days are filled with extensive training at all levels and on topics of interest to the industry and evenings leave time for extensive networking.
More than 400 people regularly attend the AFCP Conference & Trade Show each year. The Trade Show is the largest in the industry, showcasing the newest products and services available to build a stronger free paper industry.
At an AFCP conference, you can expect:
- The best training through The Leadership Institute and tracks for publishers, sales, editorial and graphics. Industry speakers from across the country and throughout the world, graphics experts and award-winning editorial professionals all have spoken at AFCP events.
- A great hotel in a great location! Recent years have included the Doral Golf resort in Miami, the Marriott French Quarter in New Orleans, the Westin Mission Hills in Palm Springs, the Westin LaPaloma in Tucson and the TradeWinds Island Grand Resort in St. Pete Beach.

- Great entertainment, from blues rock bands to the Daytona Speedway to World War II aircraft carriers, and plenty of opportunities to network with the industry's brightest stars.
- A fun and relaxing time. All sessions are business casual allowing attendees to concentrate on learning and networking. The annual golf outing and team building exercises are great ways to meet new friends.
- A warm group of great people! You'll find that AFCP members are quick to share experiences and welcome newcomers as well as the folks who've attended for years.
- A cool, relaxing libation at the end of the day to wash down the adrenaline and excitement of the days activities. Then for those who enjoy late night activities, there is our signature party at Club AFCP! All designed to facilitate networking and fun experiences between members of all kinds.
The AFCP Conference & Trade Show is a wealth of information and it's FREE! It's a great way to show your key employees that you care about them and appreciate their hard work. When you bring a key employee and his or her spouse to an AFCP conference, not only will they learn to perform their jobs better, they will enjoy the trip and appreciate the company. And, all attendees can bring a spouse/guest absolutely FREE!
