The NAMA SHOW 2019

---

The annual NAMA Show delivers opportunity and education in convenience services for operators and professionals in vending, coffee services, pantry and micro markets.  There were over 4600 attendees and 360 exhibitors at the April event in Las Vegas. PRECON, the premier Special Event Design & Technical Production firm in the country, manages the show, and hired Bzzz Productions to help with the plenary session live show call. 

Walgreens Boots Alliance was a global sponsor of the USA Pavilion for the 2015 World Expo in Milan,  Italy, one of 145 countries. The theme of “American Food 2.0. United to  Feed the Planet,” welcomed over 6 million visitors in six months.  Bzzz  Productions was hired to provide strategic counsel and project  management, working on all logistics with the Chicago, London and Genoa offices for WBA onsite events; including travel coordination for the US and UK staff rotating in and out of Milan, as well as Michelle Obama’s  official delegation trip to the venue, with celebrity chefs Mario Batali and Carla Hall. 

Bzzz Productions provided total show management for the National 4-H  Council’s Annual Legacy Awards Galas at the Newseum in Washington, DC  and Union Station from 2014 - 2016, managing all technical production,  staging and show call.  Bzzz Productions was also deeply involved in the  creative aspect of the evenings with counsel on catering, florals and  decor choices. The evenings were filed with tributes to youth showcasing  the 4-H mission and honoring the outstanding work done by so many in  the 4-H community.
