With the annual WPMA Convention just around
the corner, I would like to announce some exciting news. Again in
2015, WPMA is partnering with NATSO, the national association representing truck stops and travel plazas, to bring our marketer members
unparalleled business and networking opportunities. WPMA will share
educational resources as well as business and networking opportunities
for our marketer members with the members of NATSO, at both the
NATSO Show and WPMA’s National Convention & Convenience Store
Expo, scheduled to be held this February in Las Vegas.
