AAHOA Vice Chairman a Featured Panelist at The NAMA Show 2022

 

Earlier this morning in Chicago, AAHOA Vice Chairman Nishant (Neal) Patel was a panelist for the “The Birdseye View of Changing Consumer Environments” session during the National Automatic Merchandising Association’s annual event. As one of the first – if not only – hotel owners to ever speak at a NAMA event, Neal shared his insights related to the grab-and-go self-service convenience market and the positive impact is has on hoteliers’ bottom lines. Neal referenced how vending machines – once thought to be a relic of the past – have made a strong comeback and help hoteliers in certain segments deliver additional food and beverage options to guests while saving on labor costs. The session was well-attended, and many engaged with Neal after the session to ask questions and better understand the mindset of hotel owners. Thank you, Neal, for representing the voice and perspectives of hotel owners at this event.
