 Time to Register for BLAST Atlantic City 2026!

 

VISTAR North Buying Show

 

The National Association of Blind Merchants is collaborating again this year with Vistar to offer its traditional BLAST (Business Leadership and Superior Training) training and networking opportunity.  The Vistar North Buying Show is scheduled for September 23^rd and 24th at the Hard Rock Hotel in Atlantic City.  Since many blind vendors attend this buying show to take advantage of the promotions that are only available at the show, it is a great opportunity to get together for presentations and discussions of important topics.

We will begin with a networking reception on Tuesday evening. Wednesday will start with breakfast Followed by a full agenda including  Dee Jones, Former RSA Randolph-Sheppard Specialist, USPS Representative Sherri Evans, Neel Lalchandani from Brown Goldsten Levy, Lauren McLarney from Rosenberg Martin Greenberg, Sodexo/InReach, Jesse Hartle, and updates from many of our suppliers. We will dismiss after lunch so you can attend the Vistar Buying Show.
