NAMA’s CoffeeTea&Water show opened with a bang yesterday, Nov. 8. Nashville singer/songwriter Lionel Cartwright performed "Let Me Fill You Up," a piece he wrote to celebrate NAMA's inaugural Coffee Services Hall of Fame. Commissioned by Newco, the song debuted during the show’s General Session in Nashville.
"It was Conway Twitty who said a good country song takes a page out of someone's life and puts it to music. Today, Newco is honored to share Lionel Cartwright's song with the industry," said Karen Webster, Chair of NAMA's Coffee Services Committee and CFO of Newco.
The show’s General Session also featured a keynote speech by Seth Mattison and honored Dean Gilland, named the 2016 Coffee Legend.
Today’s events kicked off with the WIN Fun Run/Walk, followed by educational sessions and trade show.
