Your Ticket to Success
Join hundreds of your fellow retail shipping center owners and operators this summer in Las Vegas at this first-ever, admission free national trade show produced exclusively for the retail pack and ship community – the Retail Shippers EXPO!  
 
This is your chance to meet – and talk with – the manufacturers, distributors and suppliers so important to the success of your business. With more than 80 booths in the exhibit hall, the industry’s leading vendors will be on hand to display the latest in technology, products and services.  From hardware and software companies to product and service providers – they’ll all be there with one objective: To Make Your Store More Profitable

The EXPO will open at 11:00am on Friday, August 15th, and close eight hours later at 7:00pm to allow plenty of time to visit every exhibitor. In between, you’ll also have the opportunity to network with other store owners and share your ideas – and probably pick up a few yourself!
 
If you’re looking for new ideas, new profit centers and better ways of doing business, the Retail Shippers EXPO is your ticket to success!

The Flamingo Hotel & Casino
The Flamingo Hotel has anchored the Las Vegas Strip since they started rolling dice in 1946. This self-contained casino and resort offers everything an adventurous vacationer could want; including a Wildlife Habitat and a 15-acre Caribbean-style water playground.

Set on the famous four corners of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road, this hotel combines heart-pounding Las Vegas excitement with hospitality and service that's second to none.
 
Entertainment abounds at the Flamingo Las Vegas with a variety of shows including Second City. Restaurants cater to tastes ranging from Italian to Chinese, and the Paradise Garden Buffet serves up delicious food in an idyllic setting. It goes without saying that the casino is enormous, with 2,100 slot machines, 71 table games and a giant race and sports book to reward the fortunate.  
 
True to its lineage, the Flamingo Las Vegas is a quintessential Las Vegas experience.
 
The Retail Shippers EXPO has arranged for special rates for attendees:  A Standard Room is available for $129.00 per night tax, and the special Go Rooms are $204.00 per night tax. To make your room reservations online, “click” on HOTEL RESERVATIONS in the Quick Links section.

  A Late Addition to the RS EXPO
HAZMAT Transportation Basic Awareness Training will be presented by the US Department of Transportation/Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (USDOT/PHMSA) at the Retail Shippers EXPO in Las Vegas—August 16, 5-6 pm.

The course will be given by a member of the Hazardous Materials Safety Assistance Team.

HAZMAT BASICS / SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE
The Basic HazMat Transportation Awareness overview will provide you with the tools and information necessary to identify a possible HazMat Shipment. Learn how to create a “best practices” program for your retail shipping business to identify specific contents and packaging that might contain hazardous materials. Students will receive a DOT Certificate that meets current compliance recommendations.

This training is being offered at no charge to all Retail Shippers EXPO participants; however, class space is limited and is being offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Watch for a coming announcement regarding additional opportunities to receive the no-fee training and certificate for those unable to attend the EXPO.
