Networking
Question: POS System: Do you currently use ARBA? A PPP Retail Member is considering this system and would welcome the opportunity to connect with you to learn more.
Question: The Director of Buyer Services from the AmericasMart has reached out, as they are going to introduce a Hospital Gift Shop panel during the January winter show. She is looking for buyers that would be willing to speak, as well as topics that would be of interest. If you are interested in speaking or have a topic idea – please let us know.
