The NAMA Show is setting up to be a great industry event in New Orleans, just under a month from now.
Besides the obvious – networking opportunities, incredible NOLA cuisine and a wonderful live music scene, here are four good reasons to attend the 2021 NAMA Show.
1) The technology – This show is setting up to be a technological wonder. From micro market retail technology to new OCS solutions to some of the most compelling vending machines you will ever see. Manufacturers have been busy over the past year, dreaming up some creative ideas and New Orleans is the place to see it all.
2) The products – As micro markets growth continues, a whole new generation of food, beverages and snacks are being rolled out to meet the demand. Again – this is the place to see it all.
3) The education – There are plenty of opportunities to learn at the NAMA Show, but we want to especially turn your attention to two of the pre-conference sessions, Tuesday, August 17.

4) The Fixturelite exhibit on the showroom floor – “When they walk into the Fixturelite booth on the showroom floor, operators will walk into an experience, not a sales pitch,” said Orlando.
“We want our visitors to feel the customer experience in an optimum workplace environment,” he added. “We're also not there to info-dump. We are there to find out how we can, or can't help an operator with their business, and to determine if we're on the same page with them. If we are, then that likely means increased success, a new beginning and an opportunity for that operator to elevate their game.”
“We always do the best we can to make our NAMA Show booth an attraction and one that promotes engagement with operators. We do something special every year and this year will be no exception. We will be showcasing features that can help operators capitalize on retail strategies that work.”
