BROOMFIELD, Colo. Retailers wanting to hear the latest tobacco-related news on economic and regulatory fronts can attend the upcoming NATO seminar scheduled for Aug. 22 in Colorado.

Coinciding with the Smoker Friendly Annual Conference and Tobacco Festival, which will be held Aug. 22-23, the NATO event will feature a Wall Street analyst, NATO’s executive director and an industry researcher as part of the one-day event, officials with the Lakeville, Minn.-based tobacco-retailing association said.

Both the Smoker Friendly conference and the NATO seminar will be held at the Omni Interlocken Hotel in Broomfield, Colo.

NATO’s goal for the education seminar is to provide informative presentations on tobacco legislative and regulatory issues, plus an emphasis on cannabidiol (CBD) market trends and products, officials said in a statement. To register for the NATO seminar, click here.
