Mark Johnson, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs, and Crystal Leatherman, State and Local Government Affairs Manager, attended and actively participated in the annual Washington Chamber of Commerce Executives (WCCE) conference in Ellensburg, Washington. WR was a proud co-sponsor of the event.
The conference, which attracted executives from across the state, provided an excellent opportunity to forge partnerships and strategic alliances with local organizations. These connections are vital for educating and engaging local, state, and federal elected officials on issues impacting the retail sector and employers.
WR aims to be a valuable resource for chambers of commerce of all sizes, offering expertise on general retail issues as well as specific topics such as public safety, retail theft, organized retail crime, workforce development, artificial intelligence, and product stewardship.
Chambers of commerce play a crucial role in their communities across various sectors. WR deeply values its strong relationship with WCCE and its members and looks forward to continuing to work together toward shared goals.
