AAFD partners with Mace Security to offer AAFD members discounted rate on state-of-the-art security products


    SAN DIEGO, CA, August 02, 2009 /Accounting PR News/ -- The American Association of Franchisees and Dealers (AAFD) today announced a new partnership with Mace Security International, manufacturer of personal defense and electronic surveillance products marketed under the famous brand name, Mace . Under this new agreement, the more than 50,000 franchised outlets owned by AAFD members have access to Mace's broad security line at partnership pricing.

"Security is a huge issue with many of our franchisee members and certainly an area where you don't want to spare quality due to expense. This new partnership gives our members access to state-of-the art security equipment at a reduced rate from a company, Mace, that's literally a household name in the world of security," said Robert Purvin, chairman of AAFD.

While Mace is a household name for its personal defense sprays, the company boasts an extensive product line of security equipment. Mace's security products include: security systems, cameras and accessories, monitors and accessories, digital video recorders and other security products (e.g. mirrors, domes, and signage).

John O'Leary, president of Mace Security Products, expressed his excitement about the new partnership. "Our association with AAFD is a classic win-win, relationship," said O'Leary. "Mace wins because we now are associated with the industry's most respected franchisee advocate, AAFD, many of whose members need our products. AAFD wins by enabling its members to save on state-of-the-art security equipment."
