The National Postal Forum has long served as the mailing and shipping industry's premier educational venue, trade show, and networking event, held in partnership with the United States Postal Service. The event moves to a different host city each year; NPF 2026 was held in Phoenix, where Postmaster General David Steiner made his first NPF appearance as America's 76th Postmaster General, and NPF 2027 moves to Orlando. Some exhibitors, such as Tension, note having exhibited at NPF for over 50 years, reflecting the forum's long-standing role in the industry.
