The NRHA Village
Once again, NRHA will have a major presence at the National Hardware Show with the NRHA Village and stage. The stage, located near the entrance of the convention center, will be host to seminars throughout the day, product demonstrations and awards ceremonies. The NRHA Village will function not only as the location where retailers, manufacturers and distributors can go to forge new relationships with one another, but will also serve as a home to the NRHA Village Stage.
At the Stage retailers will experience a wide-range of educational seminars introducing proprietary-research based on the industry’s hottest conversation starters. Topics for these seminars range from examining the impact of global economics on the home improvement industry to focusing on how today’s green movement has impacted the operations of members in the home improvement industry.
