Dallas, May 23 – GC Buying Group returns to Atlanta Market in July to continue the summer focus on education, new products, and new GC vendors.
The two-day event will begin Wednesday with special demos at the GC Booth on the 8th floor of Building 2, followed by the GC Party in the Kitchen, 5-7pm for Store and Vendor Members, and Reps.
Thursday’s education day will feature training presentations by key Vendor Members and networking group discussions among Store Buyers. A Mini Showcase highlighting vendors new to GC membership will also include new product introductions from current vendors. As the store buyers review products and interact with vendors, they will enjoy a Sip & Shop option with drinks and small bites, followed by networking at the Wrap Up Party.
A special feature of the day on Thursday will be a lunchtime keynote address, specifically focused on generating store growth through the benefit of vendor product promotions. Templates and guides for ensuring the success of promo events will be unveiled during the presentation.
“The GC team has worked closely with AmericasMart and the IMC to create a robust experience for GC members during the July Atlanta market,” pointed out Janis Johnson, president and founder of GC Buying Group. “Getting back to our original structure of a summer education-focused event has enticed store buyers and vendor exhibitors to include Atlanta in their market planning,“ Johnson continued.
To reinforce the growth of GC Buying Group, GC has announced the addition of seven new members joining the Group in 2023.
