"Innovation, nimbleness and strong customer service are key areas of differentiation for the independent supermarket channel," said Peter Larkin, president and CEO of Arlington, Va.-based NGA. "The Coca-Cola Co. and RNG partnership will greatly enhance the ability of NGA member retailers and wholesalers to compete at the next level by providing access to the latest in global retail format innovation and marketplace trends, across all channels -- with only a few clicks."
