TORONTO, Feb. 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via CannabisNewsWire -- Retail is a key focus of this year’s O’Cannabiz Conference and Expo. A highlight of this year’s event is the O’Cannabiz Retail Zone, featuring two full days of retail education and 20,000 square feet of dedicated retail expo space — an unparalleled opportunity to dive deep into the retail potential of the cannabis space. This premier cannabis event, slated for April 23–25, 2020, will be held at the International Centre, one of Toronto’s most vibrant venues.
With a packed agenda, including the track designed specifically for those with retail in mind, the O’Cannabiz conference includes an extensive retail session curated by Cova Software, the leading cannabis dispensary point-of-sale technology.
The Retail Zone also includes several workshops and panel discussions that cover topics, from best practices on inventory management and how to create provincial reporting, to the 10 biggest mistakes that retailers make and how to avoid them. Other subjects include detecting and preventing cannabis retail fraud, seven cannabis compliance issues your cannabis retail can avoid and how technology can transform the cannabis in-store experience.
