NACS Daily – Three ways to share your healthful products with customers

June 16, 2017 By Frank Beard Leave a Comment

I’ve visited more than 1,000 convenience stores in 24 states, and I frequently encounter stations that sell healthful food and make little mention of it. This is concerning, because it’s vital to promote the full range of your products if you want to broaden your customer base.

It doesn’t have to be complicated. Check out my NACS Daily column for three easy (and inexpensive) ways to tell customers that you have healthful options inside the store.

About Me

I'm a speaker, writer, and advocate for healthful living. I'm also part of the team at GasBuddy as an Analyst/Evangelist for Convenience Store and Retail Trends. But you might know me as the guy who spent 30 days eating gas station food to prove that "eating out" can be healthy. Click here to learn more.
