WHY ATTEND?

Come hungry for ideas, leave with a full cart.

RGMS brings together the people, tools, and ideas that matter most to independent grocers right now. All in one day.

Know what's changing before your competitors do.

Margins are tighter, and shoppers have more options. Generic POS systems keep charging you for features you don’t need. In four hours, you'll hear directly from the people tracking where independent grocery is headed — and which stores are growing in spite of it.

Walk away with a plan, not just a presentation

Every session is built around what you can actually use. Tactics for sales, inventory, and customer loyalty that you can take back to your store and act on — not a PDF you'll find in your Downloads folder in 2027.

Hear from grocers running stores like yours

You won’t find keynote speakers or analysts here. Real store owners and operators will talk through what's working in their aisles right now: margin management, EBT/EWIC, loyalty programs, and going online without losing what makes their store worth shopping at. Turns out they have opinions.

A curated lineup,
just for independent grocers.

Every session is handpicked to address what matters most to your store right now.

1

Use AI to attract, engage, and retain more shoppers — even if you're the entire marketing team, the entire IT department, and also the one who fixes the freezer.

2

Get a first look at the features landing in your POS this year: bulk SMS for loyalty, Auto PO, e-commerce with pickup and delivery, and margin management.

3

Hear directly from other grocers on what's actually helping them grow. Real talk on margin management, inventory, EBT, EWIC, OTC, and double-up food bucks.

4

Join partners CAS, GrazeCart, and Double Up Food Bucks for a conversation on building a grocery experience that works in-store and online. Where omnichannel is heading, how adoption is trending, and what tools make it manageable for independent grocers.

Here's the fun part: Once our community #FillsTheCart during the event — with a little help from your engagement on social media — we'll unlock a donation to Meals on Wheels! 

So come ready to follow, like, share, and comment to help us fill it together. 🛒

FAQ

Who should attend?

RGMS is built for owners, operators, and managers of independent grocery stores and markets — whether you're a long-time Markt POS or IT Retail customer or just curious what all the fuss is about.

Is there a cost to attend?

Free. As in, no charge. Register so we can plan accordingly (and so we know how much virtual coffee to brew).

 

Theme Support Right Out of The Box

Time is money. Save more of it.

Sprocket Rocket Theme helps you save countless hours by making sweeping charges across your entire site instantly.

What should I bring?

Your questions and challenges. We'll handle the rest. Snacks are optional but encouraged.

I'm already a Markt POS or IT Retail customer. Is this for me?

Yes — especially you. A big part of RGMS is built around what's coming to your store and how other operators are getting the most out of it. This is the clearest look yet at what's on the roadmap and how to use it. Consider it a cheat sheet.

Will sessions be recorded?

We'll share details on recordings closer to the event date. Register to stay in the loop. (The loop is good. The loop has updates.)
