What a week it was for Canadian agri-retail! After a whirlwind week of ideas, interactions, connections, collaborations, products, presentations, lots of laughs and even a few tears, it’s time to pack up and say goodbye to the 2016 CAAR Conference.

To those who attended (as delegates or exhibitors), sponsored, volunteered, presented or otherwise contributed over the past few days, CAAR would like to extend our most sincere thanks. Without your support and participation year after year, the CAAR Conference would not be possible.

The Canadian agri-retail world is truly a community, and nowhere was this more evident than on the trade show floor at TCU Place during the past week.

This event is unique in the agriculture sector in that it allows us to come together in a national environment dedicated exclusively to Canadian agri-retail, and share the stories that only we can tell. Through networking, sharing new technologies and honing best practices, agri-retailers are helping each other to improve their businesses and support the industry that feeds the world.

We hope that you will spread the word about the CAAR Conference, so that we can continue to expand this event and bring you the very best in speakers and programs in the years to come. Please save the date to join us in Banff in 2017 – and invite your neighbours, as well!
