CONVENTION CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE

Welcome back to our Annual Show! Our 2024 Mardi Gras Party themed Convention is off to a great start. We want the convention to be a time for you to learn and grow in industry knowledge while providing time to relax, have fun and enjoy. We are again featuring some of the crowd favorites like Casino Night, the

JACK CARLILE UNFI Best Decorated Booth Competition, and the Best Bagger Competition. None of these events would take place without the tireless commitment of a dedicated committee, and this year’s committee has really raised the bar. Thank you to each one of the 2024 AGA Convention Committee members which include Kirk Clark, Mitchell Grocery Corporation; Gerry D’Alessandro, Fresh Value; Frank D’Amico, III, BTC Wholesale Distributors; Harold Garrett, Gateway Foods; Greg Gregerson, Gregerson’s Foods; Lynn Rushing, Southeastern Grocers/Winn Dixie; Charles Weathington, UNFI; and Chris Woods, Retail Data Systems. And a special thanks to AGA’s Event and Education Director, Stephanie Crabtree, for her contributions and oversight. We believe that you will enjoy this year’s schedule and are excited that you have decided to join us to network with industry leaders, peers, friends, and family. While you are here, if you need anything, please look for an AGA Board Member or staff member. We are always willing to help and want to make sure your time with us is memorable.
