We have just signed up for our second year as an ASTRA supplier member. From the webinars we have been able to host, to sponsoring their wonderful Here to Stay Conference, our ASTRA membership has enabled us to launch new products in this important and thriving region. The team that supports us has been great to work with and at this point our membership is non-negotiable as we increase brand awareness and expand our client base."
