IMPORTANT NOTICE
The Energy and Store Development Conference has received reports that a hotel broker has contacted ESD Conference attendees to solicit the purchase of hotel rooms for the ESD Conference. Please be aware that this company is NOT affiliated with or endorsed by Food Marketing Institute. Booking through unauthorized service providers has resulted in unconfirmed bookings, lost payments and increased room rates and the hotel may have no obligation to provide you with the accommodations you were expecting.
Do not fall victim to this practice —if you have been contacted by any housing service provider and have made reservations for hotel rooms through them or have additional questions, please contact Colleen Bailey at 202-220-0704 or CBailey@fmi.org.
