ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association, is proud to announce that ISSA Show North America has been named to Trade Show Executive’s (TSE) Gold 100 Class of 2024, recognizing the 100 largest trade shows held in the U.S. This prestigious honor highlights the continued growth, scale, and impact of ISSA Show North America as the flagship event for the global cleaning and facility solutions industries.

The Gold 100 ranking is based on net square feet of paid exhibit space—an indicator of both industry demand and event influence. ISSA Show North America’s inclusion is a testament to the strength of the commercial, institutional, and residential cleaning market and the critical role the show plays in uniting professionals who keep our built environments clean, safe, and healthy.

“To be recognized among the country’s largest and most influential trade shows is a reflection of the passion and purpose that drives the cleaning and facility solutions industry,” said ISSA Executive Director John Barrett. “ISSA Show North America continues to be where innovation meets action—and where the people who power the industry come to connect, learn, and lead.”

Held annually, ISSA Show North America brings together thousands of cleaning professionals, facility managers, distributors, manufacturers, and industry leaders from around the world. The show features robust education, hands-on training, product showcases, certification programs, and thought leadership designed to elevate standards and improve operations across the cleaning and maintenance spectrum.

The 2024 Gold 100 honorees will be celebrated at the TSE Gold 100 Awards & Summit, taking place September 4–6, 2025, at The Ritz-Carlton Bacara in Santa Barbara, California. The event recognizes shows that shape the future of trade and provides a forum for organizers to share strategies for continued excellence.

ISSA is proud to celebrate this achievement with the community that makes it possible—our exhibitors, sponsors, attendees, and partners. Planning is already underway for the 2025 ISSA Show North America, where we will continue to shine a spotlight on the essential work of our industry and the innovations shaping its future.
