Philadelphia Grocery Run with Gopuff - February 2026

Philly: join us for a Grocery Run with Gopuff 2.0!

Like last year (see photos below), we’ll have brand samplings (apply below, tables are granted by application only), a panel discussion, networking with your favorite CPG community, and VIP guests.

Join us for buyer introductions and networking while enjoying samples and refreshments. Even if you aren’t sampling, bring product with you to show buyers! Sample packets/trial sizes and backpack sampling highly encouraged.

The panel will be in classroom JMHH 255, one floor up from the MBA Commons where the sampling showcase will be in Huntsman Hall.

Founders, have you ever wondered:

• What does it take to get into Gopuff’s marketplace?
• Once your brand is on Gopuff, how can you keep it there?
• How does Gopuff identify new brands for their selection?

AND MORE!

Come meet these featured guests:

• Randy Ornstein - Sr. Director, Beverages
• Lily Feldman - Associate Category Manager, Snacks
• Amanda Hicks - Associate Category Manager, GM / Lifestyle
• Katherine Arnold - Category Specialist, Local
• Jared Lynch - Associate Category Manager
• Joe Hoppman - Senior Category Manager, Snacks, Smokeshop and Local
