Starting in 2024, the MAP replaces Strategic and Corporate Partnerships as the only way for active suppliers to remain involved in MCAA activities. 

"Trowel Trades has been a committed member of the MCAA for many years. We are looking forward to strengthening our collaboration in 2024 through the Silver Tier of the Masonry Alliance Program," said Todd Fredrick, MCAA Director of Development.
