December 12, 2025 - Registration opens today for the North American Millers’ Association (NAMA) 2026 Spring Conference. The event will be held in-person on March 10-13, 2026, in Marco Island, Florida.
Spring Conference is NAMA’s largest annual education conference. It is considered a “must-attend” event by both NAMA members and the allied industry, with 200 attendees and guests participating each year.
“NAMA’s Spring Conference brings together leaders from the entire wheat, corn, and oat milling value chain,” said NAMA President Jane DeMarchi. “The connections made during this event are valuable, especially as the milling sector continues to navigate a time of rapid change. Marco Island has been a long-time favorite for this meeting, with a hotel location right on a beautiful beach!”
The program will include education sessions addressing a wide range of topics of interest to millers and suppliers, including a first look at the 2026 oat and wheat crop. Speakers will discuss a variety of topics impacting the industry.
Confirmed speakers include:
*Brandon Lipps (Caprock Strategies) - Changes at the state level impacting the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and food regulations.
*Ty Kane (Innova Market Insights) - Consumer insights.
*Matt Murphy (The Andersons) - Global wheat markets.
The event also provides attendees with opportunities to network with industry colleagues during receptions and the annual golf tournament. Attendees can also choose to be paired with small groups during “Dine-Around Dinners” for additional networking in a casual setting.
NAMA is excited to return to the Hilton Marco Island Beach Resort & Spa. NAMA's group rate is available until February 9, 2026, or until the group block is sold out, whichever comes first. The room rate is available three days prior to and three days after the conference while rooms are available.
Spring Conference registration requires a unique email address for each attendee or guest. Please contact meetings@namamillers.org with any questions.
