Event marks 1st in-person gathering for association members since pandemic’s onset
The National Beer Wholesalers Association (NBWA) kicked off its 84th Annual Convention and Trade Show at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Held annually, the convention brings beer distributors together from across the country to discuss the future of the industry. This year’s event marks the first time NBWA members will be able to assemble in person since the onset of the pandemic.
“We are so fortunate to once again convene the hardworking members of the beer distribution industry in Las Vegas,” said Craig Purser, president and CEO of NBWA, in a statement. “It’s been a long, difficult two years since we were last together in person, both for the industry and the entire country. In the face of these challenges, our industry and members have been resilient and essential to the communities where they live and operate. This year’s convention is a well-deserved opportunity to connect, learn, socialize and celebrate.”
