LORI’S NEW WHITE PAPER IS PUBLISHED IN 2024 In 2023, Lori’s concluded an extensive research initiative aimed at understanding the primary factors contributing to overall distress within hospitals among employees and visitors. Pinpointing problems to solve and solutions needed helped illuminate the pivotal role that retail within a hospital can play in enhancing the overall hospital experience.

Lori’s partnered with Bixa, an award-winning market research company with extensive experience in consumer research. Qualitative and quantitative research across a large, national sample of participants resulted in several critical insights into what patients, visitors and hospital staff want and need. Armed with this research, Lori’s Business Development team can illustrate thoroughly

how Lori’s retail solutions can posi-

tively impact the overall hospital

experience and ultimately,

the hospital’s bottom line.

S H I P CONFERENCE CENTERS O N C O

Lori’s held its 2024 company Leadership Conference September 4-6 in downtown Dallas at the Virgin Hotel. Attendees were welcomed into a medieval-themed meeting space with knights and castles, and received canvas gift bags loaded with gifts and goodies, courtesy of Lori’s Support Center staff and our generous vendors. Participants were treated to a Vendor Expo dinner, and the highlight of the summit, a night of feasting and jousting at Dallas’ famed Medieval Times.

This year’s “Quest for Success” theme focused on habits and qualities that distinguish good leaders from champions who never cease in the quest to make a positive difference in the lives of others. The keynote address and workshops focused on carrying out Lori’s mission — to be a trusted place for joy and support when people need it most — by consistently upholding honorable practices and an unwavering commitment to excellence in customer care. Lori’s executives and team leaders fellowshipped, celebrated business victories, discussed best practices, and constructed new goals and a solid plan for achieving our Quest for Success in the upcoming months.

The 2024 winners of the prestigious Make Your Mark Award were specially honored at the event (see pages 4-5).

Each recipient enjoyed VIP treatment and a day of guided tours of famous Dallas landmarks including the Sixth Floor Museum, Reunion Tower, and Warren Park. View more photos on the News page at www.lorisgifts.com.
