Christian Retail leaders present analysis of channel “ten years later” at ECPA Leadership Summit

Ten years ago in Hilton Head, South Carolina, ECPA devoted an entire conference to “Revitalizing Christian Retail” including sessions on supply chain, EDI, 5 Keys to Revitalization, and why the channel is worth the investment. In the last year, each of the top chains in this important retail channel has acquired new leadership. In a session at the upcoming ECPA Leadership Summit, April 28-30 in Colorado Springs, Mardel President John Nardini, Lifeway President Tim Vineyard, and Parable president Steve Potratz will provide metrics and an analysis of the book business in their respective stores as well as an overview of how they plan to thrive in the days to come. Following this session, Curtis Riskey, CBA President, will lead a panel discussion with these leaders about the future of the channel. This will be a great opportunity to not only hear from key customers, but to have the opportunity to get to know them.
They join a strong line-up of experts slated to present at this year’s event which includes the ECPA Awards & Anniversary Banquet, with Alumni Reception held opening night. Registration and program information is detailed atECPALeadership.org.
