ORLANDO, Fla. – Registration is open for the 2023 National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) Regional Chain Conference — “Focus on the Future” — to be held January 29-31 in Orlando, FL, during NACDS’ 90th Anniversary year.

Justin Heiser, chief operating officer for Thrifty White Pharmacy and the 2023 Regional Chain Conference chair; Brian Nightengale, president of Good Neighbor Pharmacy and NACDS chair; and Steven Anderson, NACDS president and CEO are among those set to speak at the event.

“During the upcoming special 90th Anniversary Year, we are thrilled to invite NACDS members to the 2023 NACDS Regional Chain Conference. This event is a wonderful setting for regional chain members and suppliers alike to come together, strengthen relationships and address some of the most significant pharmacy, health and wellness and front-end issues impacting our industry,” said NACDS president and CEO Steven Anderson. “We look forward to the discussion as we continue to advance NACDS’ mission vigorously, and to serve the NACDS membership with a focus on innovation in the pharmacy, throughout the total store, and beyond.”

The 2023 Regional Chain Conference will feature presentations and discussion focused on the state of the industry and other key topics – including federal and state legislative priorities, digital marketing and e-commerce, and pharmaceutical trends and forecasts.
