Spanning 14 countries and clocking up over 30,000 sites between them, this impressive line up is set to make C-Store Forum Asia a prominent event in the convenience retail market.
Included in the line up is Narendra Baheti, Managing Director of Future Group, whose KB Fairprice stores are fast expanding across India.
