Why The NAMA Show was a superb display
Bob Tullio
BOB TULLIO'S TAKEAWAYS FROM THE NAMA SHOW ARE
mostly positive. Bear in mind, this outlook comes from a guy who
spent three hours presenting to six people in a room set up for 200.
His optimism is driven by two factors: incredible New Orleans oysters
(both raw and grilled) and what he saw on the show floor - innovation
that will move the industry forward. See his video interviews online.
