“ISPA continually offers timely and high quality educational offerings. Events such as the ISPA EXPO, Interzum Bedding Centre, the Industry Conference and the SHOPtalk seminars are all designed to help members get the information, supplies and practical solutions needed to run their businesses most efficiently. And it’s always a great opportunity to network with industry colleagues. Every ISPA event I have attended has offered me great take-home value—exposure to new ideas and to new people.”

"I learned about the transportation analysis offered through ISPA at the Industry Conference. After hearing the presentation, I knew there was a good chance we were leaving significant dollars on the table with our transportation vendors. ISPA’s consultant completed the analysis for us, identified the problem areas, and helped us renegotiate a deal that saved us substantial lease dollars."
