>> WHY NRF BIG SHOW IS DIFFERENT

What your NRF Big Show crew has to handle.

01 // THE CROWD

The crowd

Retail executives, store operations leaders and technology buyers.

02 // JAVITS LOGISTICS

Javits logistics

Javits has its own labor and access rules, and winter weather in January slows load-in.

03 // MEETING-DRIVEN

Meeting-driven

Most pipeline comes from booked meetings. Staff keep them on time and fill gaps with walk-ups.

04 // COLD-WEATHER OPS

Cold-weather ops

Staff arrive early and plan for coat check and security lines in the cold.
