What Our Members Say

The education and training I experience as a NACS member has truly matured my ability to effectively advocate on major industry issues and elevate my business.

Chris Bambury, Vice President, Bambury Inc.

I quickly found that my dealers aren’t the only ones benefiting from the NACS membership. I’ve been able to learn best practices in the fuel business on a weekly, often daily basis.

Jeff Miller, Norfolk, VA, 50 participating dealers, NACS Jobber/Dealer member since 2010

There’s not a NACS event I’ve attended that hasn’t paid for itself by a factor of three given all I got from the experience.

Lonnie McQuirter, Director of Operations, 36 Lyn Refuel Station

NACS has taught me everything about the convenience store industry. A decade ago, I didn't know what a c-store was and now I've gained a wealth of knowledge.

Jeffry Harrison, Rovertown

The NACS State of the Industry Summit gives me a real sense of what is going on in the industry and helps me be a better supplier foy my c-store customers.

Blake Benefiel, Altria Group

Industry engagement is not a sprint, it's a marathon. It takes time, but with commitment and passion, I've gained invaluable experience and built lasting relationships.

Tony Battaglia, PMI U.S.

NACS serves the global convenience and fuel retailing industry by providing industry knowledge, connections and issues leadership to ensure the competitive viability of its members’ businesses.
