The CStore Momentum conference is rapidly approaching, with young c-store professionals preparing to gather in Tarrytown, N.Y., from Aug. 19-21, for three days of networking, education and collaboration.
Hosted this year by Chestnut Market, the event puts connection on center stage through dedicated networking breaks, receptions and social gatherings.
“One of our attendees’ favorite things about CStore Momentum is the ability to network in an intimate atmosphere with other young executives who are facing similar challenges and experiences and who are at similar points in their career paths,” said Erin Del Conte, editor-in-chief, CStore Decisions. “Sometimes long friendships develop, while other times it’s an insight that helps you along your path. Whether you leave with a new friendship, a trusted peer network or a new idea to bring back to your company — or all three — the connections made at CStore Momentum can have a lasting impact on your leadership journey.”
Attendees will also get a chance to get to know each other during the event’s guided store tours, which will highlight a handful of the area’s flourishing c-stores, including Chesnut’s award-winning The Hutch location, where participants will be treated to a complimentary lunch.
On top of the countless networking opportunities, attendees at this year’s CStore Momentum conference will be treated to educational sessions, burning issue exchange roundtables and a keynote address from Wawa Director of Store Operations Jason Read.
