Registration Opens for STAFDA's 2025 Excellence in Distribution Program
Registration is now open for STAFDA’s 2025 Excellence in Distribution program, the industry’s premier education program.
The Specialty Tools & Fasteners Distributors Association has created a focused, 2.5-day educational program designed specifically for professionals in the construction, industrial, and supply chain industries.
STAFDA’s second annual Excellence in Distribution (EiD) will be March 11-13, 2025, at the Nashville Hilton.
The program is an intense management school with interactive workshops focused exclusively on wholesale distribution which has filled an educational void in the industry. Speakers, including Alex Chausovsky, Ken Brown, Nancye Combs, Alex Goldfayn, Ken Novak and others, have been carefully selected based on their years of industry experience and proven success in their respective fields. Attendees will interact closely with these experts covering key topics such as operational challenges, growing sales, branding, digital marketing, sales structure and compensation, HR, profitability, warehousing and inventory, and key topics such as M&A and Capital Markets as well as Procurement, Policy, & Labor Relations.
EiD is open to all companies in the construction and industrial channel, not just STAFDA members. STAFDA has partnered with PTDA (the Power Transmission Distributors Association) to provide the training at a discounted rate.
Another popular aspect of EiD is the opportunity to socialize and connect with like-minded individuals in our industry. The agenda includes ample time for networking, allowing attendees time to engage in meaningful conversations with other professionals.
Nashville’s Excellence sessions will end at noon, Thursday, March 13, allowing those who want a fun diversion before heading home to join an optional tour of Jack Daniels.
STAFDA and PTDA members receive preferential pricing, but EiD is designed to serve the construction, industrial, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, LBM, safety, concrete, or any other market in the construction channel. It’s open to distributors, manufacturers, rep agents, general contractors, industry buying groups, and any professional who wants to learn and grow in their career.
