Thursday, September 7, 2023 / News WSA Members Agree to Merge with ASA Led by our long-range strategic vision, ASA has a strong record of accomplishment in establishing vibrant programs that support our members and industry. In fact, over the past decade plus, the association has invested over $9.5 million dollars to deliver unmatched value enabling our members to succeed and win the future. We are proud of how far we have come but we still have much more to accomplish, and that takes a strong unified industry speaking with one voice. WSA, recognizing their responsibility to their members to provide programs and services they desire have decided to turn over those functions to ASA. Throughout the years, WSA has ardently supported ASA programs and initiatives, especially the ASA Education Foundation. WSA was one of the early contributors of the Karl E. Neupert Endowment Fund The merging of ASA and the Western Suppliers Association will continue to ensure that PHCP-PVF channel partners from throughout the western states continue to have a clear voice in the governance of the national organization as well as the provision of local programs and services throughout the west, provide input and guidance to the ASA team in delivering programming and services, including a western networking and educational conference, advocacy especially at the state level, business intelligence programs, and career development efforts, as well as developing an engaged distributor network The merger with WSA expands ASA’s ability to support our membership and to continue our work toward being the unified voice that drives the success of the PHCP and PVF supply chain industry.
