Being affiliated with a professional trade association brings credibility to the marketplace and shows to the local sales force your commitment as a Supplier.
- By supporting CASA as a supplier, you become a Preferred Vendor in our Association through the program "We support those who supports us". We strongly enforce to our distributor membership to first quote/contact/negotiate their orders through those suppliers that invest in our Association and market, either by been a supplier member and/or visiting Puerto Rico for our Annual Trade Show or our exclusive supplier sponsorship of Lunch and Learns. As a CASA member you get:
- Listing in our printed Exclusive Directory called: Puerto Rico Preferred Vendors
- Recognition in our magazine & newsletter as Preferred Vendor. Remember that in sales, it is "out of sight, out of mind".
- If you are based in Puerto Rico, you will enjoy all distributors' benefits.
- Right to participate in our Regional Programs:
