CSNews has 2008 NACS Show Covered
CHICAGO -- On Saturday, Oct. 4, more than 20,000 convenience industry professionals will arrive here to take part in the NACS Show 2008, and Convenience Store News’ microsite dedicated to covering the trade show, www.csnewsattheshow.com, will also be there to help attendees plan and navigate the show, and also keep them informed about industry news and events at the show and in the broader market.
