During the two-day conference sessions at the Grocery & Specialty Food West show this year, there were plenty of learning opportunities for attendees.
The conferences were sold out, with delegates eager to learn about the latest trends, and tips and tricks from industry leaders such as retail expert Harold Lloyd, former Amazon Fresh guy Tom Furphy and MorningNewsBeat.com’s Kevin Coupe and Localize’s Meghan Dear and Ashley Good. Gary Sands, CFIG’s VP of policy provided a session on the policies affecting grocers.
On the floor, there were education sessions where attendees could listen and learn for 30 minute increments.
Topics included top retail trends, how to upsell produce and best practices of the retail leaders.
