Exhibitor Convention Registration
Reach 7-Eleven Franchisees –
the Largest Convenience Store Buying Group in the Country!
Here’s the perfect opportunity to get your company and the latest products in front of 7-Eleven franchisees.
Become an exhibitor at the TWO-DAY trade show, or gain more visibility throughout the four-day event by becoming a Major Sponsor! Our annual convention and trade show attracts 7-Eleven store owners from all across the country into one venue. This provides you with a unique opportunity to directly interact, network and sell products to them.
Bring Your Best Deals & Discounts!
We have continued with the electronic ordering system and have partnered with i-Show Manager, for electronic ordering. Exhibitors will be able to participate in providing incentives for franchisees to come by, place orders and discuss future business. Each exhibitor will receive one IPAD for ordering with more available for rent through the i-Show website. Part of the new system will include our trade show raffles. Raffle tickets will be generated automatically by electronic ordering system when someone places an order. (No more handing out Tokens and trying to keep track of them!) Sponsor’s ‘select items’ will have an increased value for generating points to franchisees. Points will convert to raffle tickets.
Be ready to make an impression by showcasing inviting displays and bring your best-selling products and special deals.

CMN Hospitals Charity Golf Outing – Hawk’s Landing Golf Course
(9:00am Shotgun Start)
If you have the opportunity to spend the morning out and want to raise money for a good cause, please sign up to join us at Hawk’s Landing Golf Club, located at 8701 World Center Dr, Orlando, FL 32821.
Hawk’s Landing Golf Club offers a thoroughly enjoyable, elegant and energizing golf experience. The course was recently re-sculpted not only by the dictates of Mother Nature but, more significantly, by the demands of a nurturing team of dedicated golf aficionados. Following the re-design by Robert E. Cupp II of the 1986 Joe Lee layout—the new Hawk’s Landing provides challenges for all levels of golfers.
The perfect setting for challenging golf and a scenic blend of Florida wildlife and tropical vegetation. Hawk’s Landing Golf Club spans over 220 acres of lush grounds at Orlando World Center Marriott Resort. The beautiful natural surroundings, native birds, fragrant beds of vibrantly colored azaleas and plentiful sunshine create an inviting atmosphere for your round. The landscaping has been enhanced, making this one of the most beautiful courses in Florida. The sculpted fairways are ample but mildly undulating, and approaches to the large, true rolling (TifDwarf bermuda) putting surfaces demand a steady hand. Quality, white sand bunkers frequent the sides of fairways and greens and also add to the aesthetic beauty. At 6602 yards with a 131 slope rating, Hawks Landing presents a good challenge for avid golfers.
(Course is approximately 2 Miles from the hotel.)

Hotel Reservations
Because of overwhelming response to this year’s convention, we are now sold out of rooms at hosting hotel. The JW Marriott World Center is a 5-star resort with all the same amenities as the Gaylord. We will also have a continuous shuttle between the two hotels during the hours of our events. We will post that schedule once confirmed, on our website. This hotel happens to be the home of this year’s Convention Charity golf tournament on Wednesday.
If you have booked a room at the JW Marriott World Center before our block was in place, you may want to speak to a reservation agent and ask them to move you into our block at our reduced rate. IF you booked at another hotel in the last few days, simply make a reservation with us at the Marriott and cancel your previous reservation. See the link below for rooms at this beautiful resort.
