If you look at the providers, consumer product groups, and manufacturers that are here, the Annual Meeting is an opportunity to work collaboratively and in good faith to really push forward together in the service of larger group of customers. It’s a great opportunity build out the relationships within the association.

The NACDS Annual Meeting is the one time of year where you can get face-to-face with your partners to share strategies and where we believe we can add disproportionate value together.

Tracey Brown

Executive President and President Of Retail Products and U.S. Chief Customer, Walgreen Co.

Walmart has attended the Annual Meeting for multiple years and it’s a forum that allows us to engage in a much more macro level but also personal level with our suppliers. It brings better ideation, innovation and the ability to have authentic and transparent dialogue.

Silvia Azrai Kawas

EVP, Consumables

We participated in our first NACDS Annual Meeting in 2023 and I can confidently say that the level of interaction with top retail executives has moved our business forward. The ability to network and set meetings with the “who’s who” of the drug, food, and mass merchandising vertical to explore partnerships is top notch. We look forward to future NACDS Annual Meetings.
