When Alaska Rubber Group (ARG) first decided to make the digital transformation and build out a fully integrated B2B eCommerce site, we realized that we wouldn’t be able to just throw some money at an eCommerce company and be done with it.

Its hard to adequately express my excitement for NAHAD 2021. Going through 2020 without seeing the NAHAD community, and after completely planning the Convention in Atlantis, was… difficult, to say the least. Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and understanding as we’ve worked through decisions NAHAD has never had to make before. This is what makes NAHAD so special: YOU.
