NBPA returns to Atlantic City for 2000 convention

The National Beverage and Products Association, formerly the East Coast Coffee Service Association, will return to Atlantic City, New Jersey and Bally's Park Place Hotel Casino for its 15th Annual Convention and Trade Show to be held February 16-18,2000.

The theme for the Association's first

show of the new century will be "Back To The Roots Of Success." Plans are already under-way for an educational program that will focus on sharpening the essential sales elements of the NBPA's service-oriented members.

Service Providers from the OCS industry, who also sell water, vending products, office products, foodservice, and specialty coffee, will find plenty of helpful programming focused on the common "service" aspect of the business, as well as the usual array of new products and innovations from suppliers across the nation.

All events during the show will take place under one roof at Bally's including networking, educational seminars, social functions, and exhibits.

NBPA is currently the only not- forprofit trade association dedicated to the office refreshment industry. For more information on the convention contact NBPA at 800/311-NBPA.
