The Coca-Cola Inspiration Seminar

(Room 116-117, Level P1)

Reinvent Yourself.  Repeat.

Had you ever considered that Fuel Retailing might have some of the same challenges as Cinema Exhibition?  Possibly not.  But as cinema has home streaming, forecourts are now facing a future where consumers also have the options of where and how to choose to recharge and are needing to shift to reinvent their purpose.  Indeed, there has been consideration that cinema may be something they should consider on new EV sites.

      We have pleasure in welcoming Mark Wohltmann, thought leader and strategist and Director of NACS Global.  Mark, who travels the world extensively to serve NACS’ Convenience and Fuel Retailing members in more than 60 countries, will share how the convenience and petrol retailing sector has always evolved but now needs to totally pivot toward a future that is experience driven.

     Come and join us for a thought-provoking session hosted by Nick Gault, Senior Director Away From Home.  Oliver Delaney, Coca-Cola’s Senior Global Director for Convenience and Petrol, will also join the Q&A session with Mark as we explore the parallels between the 2 industries and look at cinema exhibition from a different perspective.
