In the first half of 2024, the facilities and security industries we serve witnessed a whirlwind of networking and knowledge-sharing across several key trade shows. From Texas to Las Vegas, to California and Tennessee, industry leaders gathered to explore the latest trends, technologies, and strategies shaping the future. Let’s dive into the highlights for our affiliate group- Professional Retail Services, Retail Mechanical Services, and Retail Security Services.
SPECS Show – The Storefront of Physical Retail
Grapevine, TX: Kicking off our tradeshow season was SPECS show in Grapevine, TX. Members of our executive team were in town for client meetings, where great networking took place!
RFMA – Restaurants Reign
Washington, DC: A highlight of our season, RFMA landed our team in DC this year. Retail Mechanical Services sponsored the Opening Party and enjoyed the valuable workshops and connecting with long-time industry friends. Plus, we enjoyed the harbor views!
Retail Spaces – Reimaging Physical Retail
Austin, TX: This experiential event hosted speakers from IKEA and Whole Foods, plus networking happy hours.

We had a blast at the events and made meaningful connections on the tradeshow floor. Nashville is known for its after-hours attractions, and of course, we showed out in our cowboy boots!

Long Beach, CA: The Retail Security Services team had a fantastic time meeting with existing clients, discussing industry trends with their esteemed peers and making connections with future partners. Plus, sunny California always makes for a worthwhile trip!
