AVDA Members Invited to NAW Executive Summit

Through its affiliation with the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW), AVDA extends its members the opportunity to attend NAW’s Executive Summit each year in Washington, DC. The upcoming meeting is being held January 26-28, 2004 and registration is now open.

Attendees will be treated to a sneak preview of the 2004 Elections; an insider’s look at the 2004 Economy; a bonus presentation on the most recent Facing the Forces of Change study: Customer-Driven Distribution; and a unique perspective on Branding, as it relates to wholesale distribution. You’ll hear from some of Washington’s elite insiders and deal makers

and benefit from NAW’s position at the helm of wholesale distribution.

AVDA’s Board of Directors will be holding its annual January meeting on January 26, in conjunction with the NAW Executive Summit. Dr. Stephen Sundlof, Director of the Center for Veterinary Medicine, will address the Board during the meeting.

If you’ve never attended an NAW meeting before and would like additional information, please contact AVDA’s Executive Director, Fred Stringfellow, at 443-640-1040 (ext. 102).
