Every year, people from every layer of the Retail industry visit the Big Show, ranging from C-Level and Senior Execs to the regional managers and the single store operators.
The event will be held from 11-14 January 2015 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City, known as 'The Glass House', and located at 11th Avenue in the west of Manhatten.
