National Retail Tenants Association (NRTA)

Focus 08-Solutions for Success is the theme for NRTA's 13th Annual Conference, planned for September 14-17, 2008, at the Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, Florida.

Conference attendees have the ability to share industry best practices for profit-building capabilities. There is a direct link from conference networking to a commercial tenant's capability to improve cost recovery skills and effective lease administration procedures on many levels.
