The interactive floor plan behind APAS Show 2026

APAS Show is a major supermarket, food, beverage, and retail event organized by APAS — Associação Paulista de Supermercados. Held May 18–21, 2026, at Expo Center Norte in São Paulo, the show brought retailers, suppliers, brands, sponsors, and industry professionals together for business, networking, product discovery, and market insights.

At an exhibitor-driven event of this scale, the floor plan is more than a layout. Attendees need to find companies, brands, sponsor areas, and key locations quickly, while exhibitors and partners depend on visibility across a busy show floor. ExpoFP created a branded, searchable map that made the event easier to explore and measurable throughout the live experience.

The challenge: navigation and discovery at a large trade show

APAS Show 2026 combined extensive exhibition areas with a large number of exhibitors, sponsors, brands, and attendee touchpoints across Expo Center Norte. Visitors needed a clear way to understand the layout, locate specific companies, and move efficiently between key areas.

A static floor plan alone would have limited how people could search and interact with the show. The organizer needed a scalable digital experience that supported exhibitor discovery and sponsor visibility while remaining easy to access during a high-traffic event.

The project also needed to produce measurable engagement. Tracking map views, loads, sessions, and users would show whether the interactive floor plan became a meaningful part of the attendee journey rather than simply an additional event asset.

What the organizer wanted to achieve

The project had four clear goals:

The map was connected to navigation, exhibitor discovery, sponsor visibility, and the overall attendee experience. Improving the digital floor plan supported all of those priorities at the same time.

ExpoFP's solution

ExpoFP delivered a branded interactive floor plan for APAS Show 2026, turning a large exhibition layout into a searchable digital experience for attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, and event stakeholders.

The delivered scope included:

• Interactive event floor plan hosted on ExpoFP for APAS Show 2026
• Large exhibition layout with booths, exhibitor areas, sponsor and brand areas, and key event locations
• Searchable map experience designed to support attendee navigation and exhibitor discovery
• Points of interest, labels, and map elements structured for a high-traffic trade show
• Public map access at apasshow2026.expofp.com
• Analytics tracking for views, loads, sessions, and users

How the project was delivered

The project moved from intake and map planning to build, publication, and analytics tracking. Payment was received on March 24, the floor plan was delivered on April 6, and the event opened on May 18.

1. Planning

ExpoFP reviewed the needs of a large exhibitor-driven trade show and structured the map around exhibition areas, booths, sponsor and brand visibility, and the attendee touchpoints that mattered most.

2. Map build

The production team built the APAS Show 2026 interactive floor plan, adding booths, event areas, labels, points of interest, and other elements needed to make the large layout easier to explore.

3. Publication

The branded map was published at apasshow2026.expofp.com and made available as a centralized navigation and discovery tool before and during the event.

4. Analytics and support

ExpoFP tracked views, loads, sessions, and users during the measured period, giving the organizer and internal teams clear evidence that the floor plan was actively used at scale.

What the numbers show

ExpoFP analytics recorded the following engagement during the measured event period:

The APAS Show 2026 floor plan reached 23,606 users and generated 155,862 total views. That equals more than six views per user on average, indicating that many attendees returned to the map as they navigated and explored the event.

The dashboard also recorded 38,153 map loads and 27,514 sessions. Together, the figures show that the map was not only opened by a large audience, but repeatedly used as part of the show experience.

For the organizer, this created a measurable digital layer supporting attendee navigation, exhibitor and brand discovery, and sponsor visibility across one of the event's most important attendee touchpoints.
