The International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas 2023 has come and gone, leaving behind a trail of excitement, innovation, and inspiration for pizza enthusiasts everywhere. As one of the largest gatherings of pizza industry professionals, the expo brought together some of the most talented chefs, distributors, and suppliers in the business. From new pizza-making techniques to the latest equipment and technology, it was an event to remember.

One of the highlights of this year’s expo was the wide range of pizza styles on display. Attendees were treated to everything from traditional Neapolitan and New York-style pies to gourmet and gluten-free options with chefs showcasing unique regional specialties from all over the world. We had the opportunity to be part of the Pizza Group USA booth, where we introduced the Dragon Conveyor oven and made Roman style pinsas. In the Pizza Group booth we used Molino Iaquone for the on-site mixed dough and Pinsarella crusts as an oven-ready option that made the high-output capabilities of the Dragon conveyor a breeze.  We can’t wait to showcase the Dragon in our test kitchen right here in Toms River NJ, at the good old Jersey Shore!

In addition to the wide range of pizzas, the expo featured a number of educational seminars and workshops. These sessions covered a range of topics, from marketing and branding to the latest techniques in dough-making and oven design. Industry leaders and experts were on hand to share their knowledge and expertise, providing attendees with valuable insights and advice to help them succeed in their own pizza businesses.

Another highlight of the expo was the wide range of pizza-related products on display. Everything from high-tech pizza ovens to artisanal cheese and sauce suppliers were represented, giving attendees the opportunity to explore the latest trends and innovations in the industry. There were also a number of food and beverage suppliers on hand, offering everything from craft beer and wine to unique pizza toppings and ingredients.
