Meet & Connect with RLG at the 2025 California Retail Law Summit

octubre 26, 2025 9:00 am

RLG is excited to announce our participation in the California Retail Law Summit, hosted by the National Retail Federation on October 26–28, 2025, in Napa, California.

This premier legal and regulatory event brings together retail counsel, compliance experts, and government affairs professionals to tackle the most pressing legal challenges facing retailers in California—including environmental compliance, AI and privacy regulation, employment law, and litigation risk.

Why We’re Attending

As a leader in reverse logistics and compliance solutions, RLG is committed to helping retailers stay ahead of evolving regulations like SB 54 (packaging), SB 707 (textiles), climate disclosures, and California’s growing patchwork of consumer protection and privacy laws.

We’re looking forward to:

Engaging with legal and regulatory leaders in retail
Sharing insights on sustainable compliance strategies
Exploring collaboration opportunities with retailers navigating CA-specific mandates
