The timing is perfect for this Automatic Merchandiser & VendingMarketWatch Vending & OCS Nation podcast. It is a preview of the upcoming Coffee Tea and Water Event - November 4th and 5th in Miami. 

The title says it all: “Here is why you need to attend the 2025 Coffee, Tea and Water - the CTW.” This podcast, presented in cooperation with National Automatic Merchandising Association, looks at the plan for a gathering that was reimagined in 2024 - and now fine tuned in 2025!

“This year, we will deconstruct the evolving workplace. I am particularly stoked about this event, as I will be acting as the emcee, which means I will get to interview the incredible keynote speakers for the event and facilitate Q&A sessions with the speakers and attendees,” said podcast host Bob Tullio. The CTW is designed specifically for operators and suppliers to collaborate on ways to elevate office coffee services and pantry offerings and evolve the client relationship, moving beyond trusted service provider to essential business partner. Let’s take a look at those keynote speakers. Ethan King is a global keynote speaker, best-selling author, and award-winning entrepreneur with a unique background in visual art, marketing, psychology and business growth. Through his SIMPLE Success frameworks, he combines creative thinking, automation strategy, and AI tools to help leaders simplify complexity and scale smarter - AI – especially for business development, is something operators need to be exploring – I have been talking about that for months, so I’m excited to hear what Ethan has to say. Kaiser Yang is the CEO of Platypus Labs, Kaiser leads keynotes and workshops with energy and focus, offering accessible, real-world thought leadership and actionable takeaways that resonate deeply with audiences. Collaboration, education, compelling speakers: that’s what the 2025 CTW is all about. In this episode, Tullio spoke with two of the architects of the event – Linda Saldaña of Seventh Wave Refreshments in Atlanta and Patrick Sheehan of Sheehan Bros Vending in Columbus, Ohio.
