AWMA Show Testimonials

Worth the time and the expense

The AWMA Show is definitely worth the time away and the expense. The people you meet and the ideas you hear during networking events alone make it worthwhile. This is an event you cannot afford to miss if you are in the c-store distribution business.

It’s very strong. We are seeing a lot of distributors, the movers and shakers – the people who we need to talk to get our products on the street.
