The North America Market Access Platform offers Swedish food and beverage companies a structured opportunity to prepare for and engage with the U.S. and Canadian markets.

North America represents one of the most attractive yet complex export destinations globally, with strong demand for premium, sustainable, and innovative food and beverage products. At the same time, the market landscape is fragmented and regulated, requiring tailored strategies, local insights, and strong relationships to succeed.

Through a combination of virtual activities and a flagship in-person event, the platform supports companies in building market understanding, developing relevant connections, and identifying concrete opportunities for expansion in North America. The platform culminates in Food Business Days North America 2026 in Stockholm during Week 49, bringing together selected U.S. and Canadian stakeholders and Swedish companies.

  • Gain practical insight into U.S. and Canadian market requirements, regulatory frameworks, and route-to-market options
  • Engage with buyers, distributors, and other key stakeholders from North America
  • Identify concrete business opportunities and partnership potential
  • Strengthen your market entry or expansion strategy in North America

  • Virtual market briefings and expert-led sessions on North American market dynamics
  • Pre-arranged meetings and relationship-building opportunities with selected stakeholders
  • Interactive roundtables and peer learning with Swedish companies active in the region
