FRACO To Become Silver Member Of Masonry Alliance Program

Words: Dan Kamys

The MCAA is happy to announce that current Strategic Partner, FRACO, has chosen to move into the Silver tier of the Masonry Alliance Program. FRACO is now one of 70 companies that will receive exclusive access to the $33 billion masonry industry. 

"This is a great opportunity for us to continue our partnership and support to MCAA and the masonry industry through this new Alliance Program," said Julie Rainville, President of FRACO. 

Beginning in January, MCAA Strategic and Corporate Partnerships will be replaced by the Masonry Alliance Program. The MAP is aimed at suppliers who want to be actively involved in the industry, and will be the only way to attend events, sponsor, advertise, and more. Once the Program’s four tiers are filled, no new spots will be created. 

“FRACO has been a longtime supporter of ours, and we’re thrilled to count them among the 70 companies in the Masonry Alliance Program. At the Silver tier, they will appear monthly in MASONRY Magazine and on our websites. We look forward to seeing what this new amount of messaging will do,” said Todd Fredrick, MCAA Director of Development. 

Until June 15th, current MCAA Strategic and Corporate Partners will have early access to program details and availability. On June 15th, full program details will be available on a dedicated website and remaining availability expands.
