Why join…

Technological advancements are rapidly changing the convenience store and fuel retail industry, and will continue to do so at a pace none of us can predict. Although this may be seem impossible to keep up with, these innovations must be implemented throughout the supply chain in a smart and strategic manner in order to grow with the current expectations of your consumers.

Conexxus provides you with the intellectual property needed to simplify the process and assist you in adapting to the requirements and the current expectations of the industry.

With this mentality, Conexxus membership enables all industry stakeholders (retailers, suppliers, and industry non-profits) to improve their profitability by providing data and operations standards, technology innovation and advocacy.
