The training will cover essential information about joining the RMU program, including concepts, business plans, start-up and operating costs, visual merchandising, staffing and product planning. The training also will cover how to become certified as an Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Enterprise for women- and minorityowned businesses. Previous business experience is not required, and there is no cost to register. Garage parking will be validated at the event.
