The Ultimate 3-Day Conversation About Retail Experience
What do consumers want from retail? How can we adapt to meet those changing expectations? What role will leading brands play in retail evolution? Everything was on the table as we explored what it means to create retail experience at Shop! MarketPlace in 2023.
The Shop! Outstanding Merchandising Achievement (OMA) Awards are the Marketing at Retail Industry's most prestigious, largest and longest-running awards contest. The OMAs honor excellent displays that set the merchandising and design precedents of today and become the standards of tomorrow. Entries vie for gold, silver and bronze honors in their respective categories and divisions. In addition, all gold winners are eligible for "Display of the Year," which represents the highest recognition the industry can bestow upon an at-retail display.
