Todd Dittman has spent his career leading retail businesses and inspiring innovation to enhance the customer experience.  As Executive Director and board member of Shop Environments Association, he led the strategic planning and implementation process that positioned the largest global non-profit in the retail environments space as the go-to resource for retailers to stay ahead of brick and mortar design and technology changes.

Prior to leading Shop Environments Association, Todd held the position of Vice President of Marketing with Dairy Management Inc. where he played a key role in the organization’s transformation from generic advertising (GOT MILK?) to product development through industry partnerships with retailers such as Kroger and McDonald’s, resulting in increased dairy product demand for the U.S. dairy farmers.

Todd started his career with industry leading brands such as Borden, Wendy’s International, and Arby’s Restaurant Group.  While working at Wendy’s and Arby’s Todd led the marketing for over 400 retail locations and sat on boards of franchise cooperatives as well as Big Brothers Big Sisters.  He has a Masters of Business Administration from Loyola University, Chicago and a Bachelors of Business Finance from the University of Cincinnati.

Todd, his wife Wendy and their daughters Maddy, Anna, and Thalia have raised two loving boxers and look forward to bringing a new dog into the family soon.
