Tobacco Plus Convenience “to break records”

Scheduled for Jan. 28–29, the Tobacco Plus Convenience Expo (TPC) 2015 is set to break records. According to its organizers, registration has already surpassed that of the 2014 event.

Buyers will come to Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, from all over the world to engage with manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and suppliers.

With an eye on the Chinese market, TPC has planned a round-table discussion on both days of the show. Moderated by Ed O’Connor, president and CEO of TMG International, and Arlen Luo, president of Newsteel Media, the discussion will focus on the challenges and opportunities faced by various stakeholders.

Industry icon Steve Saka, former president and CEO of Drew Estate, will share his insights during a discussion about the premium cigar business. The round-table discussions are free to all registrants.

The TPC 2015 opening reception takes place Jan. 27 from 6-8 p.m. on the pool deck of the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino.
