Boone, NC: ECRS is excited to announce the Ignite 2018 retail success conference.This year’s conference will be held in Asheville, North Carolina from July 16–18. Ignite 2018 is designed as a meeting of minds on a mission: bringing together retail and technology executives with industry thought leaders to offer insight, share ideas, and explore innovative solutions that optimize retail performance.
Ignite attendees will experience unforgettable speakers, seminars, success workshops, and fellowship with industry colleagues. This year, attendees will hear from accomplished minds like:
Joy Nicholas, veteran of the food retail industry with more than 30 years of experience, and Harold Lloyd, retail success specialist who has provided seminars on team development and leadership for more than 25 years.
Lloyd appeared as the keynote speaker at Ignite 2017, and is excited to be returning for 2018. “ECRS’ Ignite conference is amazing. I consider it to be one of the top events of my career. The takeaway value is incredible,” he said.
Ignite 2017 was also featured in the August 2017 edition of The Shelby Report, a leading source for retail food industry news. The 2018 conference will be ECRS’ biggest yet and is sure to create even more industry buzz.
A complete listing of speakers and seminars will be released in the coming weeks.
