The ACA has for many years provided additional and valued member benefits via the the negotiation and provision of preferred supplier agreements ('PSAs').  The underlying premise of these is to provide discounted goods or services to ACA members.  

The goods or services offered would typically be those that are purchased frequently, or purchased in high volume, by ACA's key member constituency.  While the member will benefit from lower prices, and the supplier will benefit from higher sales volumes, the ACA will benefit from increased member loyalty, and a modest financial commission paid to it by the supplier based on a percentage of sales.

However, any supplier can discount.  What the ACA looks for in its preferred supplier is the ability to make a real difference to our member's businesses:  can the product/service save time, save money, and provide a competitive advantage?  There's go to be more to it than just a discount.

If you are a business that can offer our members a great price on your products and are interested in talking to the ACA about becoming a 'Preferred Supplier' then please email our Business Manager.

How do you take advantage of ACA's preferred supplier agreements?  You must be an ACA member.  If you are a current member, just get in touch with the supplier of your choice.  If you're not a member, click here to join!
