A seminar on collaborative merchandising initiatives at the upcoming National Retail Federation convention should draw considerable interest due to the involvement of Target and ConAgra Foods.

The seminar is scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 9 from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York and is titled, “Target’s Guests: Key to Decision-Marking and Vendor Collaboration.”
