RECOGNIZING the CONTRIBUTIONS of our INDUSTRY'S VENDORS
The American Supply Association Premier Vendor Program is designed to recognize the unique contributions that vendors make to the success of the association and the advancement of the PHCP/PVF industry.  ASA values the efforts put forth by industry vendors that strengthen the channel of distribution.  The Premier Vendor Program was developed to laud those that support the industry.
The level of recognition grows with a company's level of involvement.  The more a vendor participates, the greater the level of recognition the company will receive.
