QUOTES
- "If you are an owner of a supermarket, if you're the owner of a bodega, if you're an owner of a chain of restaurants, this (NRF Show) is where you want to go to get an idea of what progress has been made over the last year or what newer technologies can help your business grow." - Marcelo Muñoz
- “The interaction you want to have with that end user is the most important part of that, is the follow up. So, you know, the booth visit is great. Conversations are awesome. But if you don't seal the deal when you come back after the show, you just wasted your time.” - Marcelo Muñoz
- “I think this perspective of NRF as well, as in any conferences that we go, I think the relationship or the networking that we do at those shows and those events that they put on in the evening. It's really to meet with people among our peers, as well as meet with those people that we haven't seen in a year or six months, just to reestablish that connection of doing business together.” - Kevin Spencer
