Involvement in a committee allows you to help NACS support the retailer industry and gives you the opportunity to meet and grow relationships with your peers, from other supplier members as well as the retail liaisons to the supplier committees. Only those serving on NACS committees will be considered for serving on the NACS Supplier Board. Committee seats may be held for up to six years. Our Supplier Board pulls new Board candidates from our Supplier Committee members.
