This week the NACS team took a field trip to a new Dash In convenience store, operated by the The Wills Group. From the craft burgers and fresh-baked cookies and mini donuts to the made-to-order salads and homemade potato chips and signature beverages, Dash In's nextgen location is a food-forward destination for Glymont, Maryland, residents. Perhaps the best kept secret is Joyce, Dash In's concierge who makes sure every guest feels welcomed and valued the moment they walk through the door. Here's a few pictures from our day with the team at Dash In. We'll showcase even more during the #nacsshow general sessions in October, where we'll debut our latest #Ideas2Go videos, including Dash In. See you then!
