The Benchmarking Council met in early March in New Orleans. Members participated in discussions about human resources, employee retention, safety, and finances. Additionally, there were conversations about marketing, sales teams, and truck maintenance.
Lunch sponsors Bergquist Inc. and One Tank invited Eric Sears give an update on NPGA’s wins, the challenges facing the industry, and energy choice opportunities across the states. After wrapping up for the day, members networked at the Sponsor’s Reception hosted by Bergquist, One Tank, Cetane Associates, Rural Computer Consultants, and Tiger Payments.
