Newsagents in Melbourne ought to find time to get to C-Store 2008 at the exhibition centre today or tomorrow. Tower Systems has a stand and I was in there today to check out the event. C-Store is an excellent trade show for newsagents because it presents new product opportunities and better ways to merchandise traditional product.
With the convenience channel growing rapidly, it makes sense for newsagents to learn more about how it operates and to see good product offers.
My only surprise was that no magazine publisher or distributor was represented. Based on what I saw, coffee is the biggest push currently.

Thanks to you I went to cstore. I have signed up with three new suppliers, one for lollies, on for a gift line and one for a coffee machine. I got plenty of ideas. More new ideas than I get at GNS.
