“This year we are taking CTW education to the next level, with Thursday’s sessions dedicated to the theme of “The Workplace Café of Today,” said Chip Potter, NAMA VP of Information Services. “Today’s consumers want their breakrooms to be a destination, bringing to life the feeling of a café or coffee house,” he continued.

They will also have the chance to hear directly from industry colleagues on best practices in today’s competitive marketplace during the operator roundtable. We encourage all attendees join us Thursday morning for this new and valuable segment of our CTW education,” he concluded.
