Why Attend

The NACDS Marketplace Conference is the largest and most powerful convergence of drug, food, mass, club, and value retailing in the United States, if not the world.
The epicenter for health and beauty aids (HBA) and general merchandise (GM) buying and selling, Marketplace represents more than 90 percent of the industry. Bringing together more than 270 retail companies representing over 145,000 retail outlets with 500 manufacturing companies across 12 major categories, it represents over $500 billion in annual buying power. In a phrase, Marketplace is the lifeblood of the industry.
