National Association of Concessionaires’ Daniel Borschke to Retire at the End of 2020

Daniel Borschke, executive vice president of the National Association of Concessionaires (NAC) since 2011, has announced plans to retire at the end of 2020.

In his capacity as NAC’s executive vice president, Borschke has overseen both the trade association itself—representing the leisure-time food and beverage concessions industry, including movie theaters, stadiums, and other businesses—and its annual NAC Expo, replaced this year by a virtual retreat taking place November 10-12.

Speaking in a statement on the subject of Borschke’s leadership of the NAC through the Covid-19 pandemic, Board President Adam Gottlieb said: “Dan’s dedication and hard work in an extremely challenging 2020 have allowed the Association and membership to stay in weekly communication through educational and informative reopening calls and other virtual meetings. He will be missed, but I know he will continue to work with the NAC Board to ensure a smooth transition, and future prosperity. On behalf of NAC, I would like to congratulate Dan on his retirement and wish him the best in all future endeavors.”

Replacing Borschke on an interim basis will be Christopher Dammann, the NAC’s Director of Communications since 2012. Barbara Aslan will continue as NAC’s director of operations and member services, while Director, Meeting Services Brenda Hamill will take on an expanded role in the wake of Borschke’s retirement.

Cinemark Q3 Earnings Reports: CEO Mark Zoradi Speaks on “Dynamic Theatrical Windows,” the Success of Private Rentals

Many of the questions asked of Cinemark CEO Mark Zoradi during this morning’s quarterly earnings call were about streaming and theatrical exclusivity—leading the CEO to offer some updates on their evolving windows policy as well as clarify other points about the chain’s status moving into the fourth quarter of 2020. At AMC’s Q3 earnings call, held earlier this week, CEO Adam Aron touted the chain’s deal with Universal, which can see the theatrical exclusivity window for that studio’s titles shrink from the traditional 72 days to as little as 17 at AMC theaters. Cinemark, Zoradi announced, will join AMC in playing upcoming Universal and Focus releases The Croods: A New Age , Freaky , and Let Him Go when they open in theaters this month. Cineworld, owner of Regal, the country’s second largest chain, has made no announcements about reopening the bulk of their theaters in the coming weeks, though none of the handful of Regal theaters open in NY and CA list showtimes for Focus Features’ ...

It’s been — and still is — a wild week for the United States and the entire world as the results of the presidential election remain unknown and the pandemic continues with consistent daily records of new cases.

Now, Focus is back in action again with what looks to be their second consecutive weekend atop the box office. Let Him Go has earned respectable social media footprints for a film aimed predominately at an audience not known for making significant onlin...
