About C&I Expo

As we approach our 35th year, the Convenience & Impulse Expo continues to be the most powerful networking and product launchpad event in Australian Convenience retailing.

C&I Expo alternates between Sydney and Melbourne each year, featuring 120+ exhibitors from across Asia Pacific showcasing products and services specifically for Convenience retailers. Since 2019, we also host the biennial C&I NZ Expo in Auckland, facilitating connection and growth on both sides of the Tasman.

Uniquely in the petrol and convenience industry, C&I Expo is open to all groups and brands. Our independence allows us to present the widest variety of suppliers and welcome the broadest cross-section of retail visitors, creating unmatched opportunities for business building and essential relationship development.

80% of C&I Expo attendees are purchasing decision makers with the power to transform your business

From March 2026, C&I Expo will be co-locating with AACS Connect, the industry’s pre-eminent educational members-only Summit and Gala Awards evening.

Aligning the two biggest events in the Convenience calendar provides an unparalleled platform for success with three days of knowledge sharing and networking, offering retailers and suppliers access to the best products, insights and trends in one place. Co-location also reduces your travel and expenditure, giving you back time to spend on your own business.

C&I Expo is trade-only and entry is free.
