IN 2016 , ONE OF THE MLA ’ s core strategies was to increase the awareness of the importance of using MLA members ,” explains Director of Business Development , Steffan George . “ With this in mind , the MLA has trialled a host of consumer oriented exhibitions this year . Lockex 2016 allowed us to highlight this promotional work to potential new members , allowing us to cement our presence as the main industry body .
“ So why should you join the Master Locksmiths Association ?” Steffan asks . “ As well as the significant promotion that is on offer to Approved Company members through the highly ranking ‘ Find a Locksmith ’ website and our MLA Handbook , which
