About
Built by someone who kept watching this go wrong.
I have spent the better part of two decades on trade show and event programs, in accounts and project management. Which is the seat every question lands on when something is missing.
The pattern never changed. The booth would come back from an event and go somewhere. Not anywhere in particular, just somewhere. Some of it to the exhibit house, some to a storage unit, some to a closet by the freight elevator. The literature count was whatever someone remembered. The condition of everything was whatever you found out when you opened the case on the show floor, which is the worst possible moment to find out anything.
Here is what I kept running into. If you build custom, you have a display house, and they are outstanding at building. If you run modular, you have an exhibit house, and they are outstanding at modular. Both of them will also hold your pop-ups and your swag, because you asked and they like you.
But portable inventory is nobody's actual business. It is the thing everyone does on the side, for good clients, in whatever corner happens to be free. So it gets exactly the attention a side thing gets, which is plenty until September.
So that is what this is. A portable inventory warehouse. Not a fabricator, not a modular house, not a freight company that took an events client. Crated modular stays with your exhibit house, where it belongs and where they want it. Everything portable comes to us, and it is the only thing we do.
I built the system before I built the company, because the system is the only reason this works.
We opened a crate once and the white chairs inside had sat long enough, in enough heat, that the material had gone the yellow of a smoker's ceiling. We spent two hours cleaning and wiping down every one of them. Then we threw them out and rented replacements on site.
Wrong storage, no condition record, no inspection between events, and we found out on the worst possible morning. Two hours of labor spent on something already dead, then paying for it twice. That is the entire reason this company exists.
The mindset
Get the shit done. Go live your life.
Something shifted in the last few years and it has not shifted back. People stopped quietly agreeing that a job should eat their evenings, and started asking why a process nobody designed on purpose was costing them a Sunday.
Good. We are on that side of it. You want this handled so you can close the laptop and go be with people you actually like. Same here. That is not a perk we are offering, it is the whole reason the system is built the way it is.
Every automation, every barcode, every status that updates itself exists so neither of us is spending a Sunday night reconstructing where a case went. Work hard, obviously. But the point of the work is the part that comes after it.
If that sounds like your team, we are going to get along.
How we work
Four things we care about
- Event and trade show native. This is not a 3PL that picked up an events client. Every workflow was designed by someone who has stood on a show floor at 6am wondering where the crate went.
- The system is the product. We built our own, because nothing off the shelf tracks a booth the way a booth actually behaves. It is the reason a small team can give you more attention than a big one, not less.
- No surprise invoices. Your bill builds as the month goes, visible to you the whole time. You approve numbers before work happens. Nothing arrives at the end that you have to reverse engineer.
- We answer the question. Including where to ship it, which nobody ever seems to be able to find out. If we are not the right answer for something, we will point you at who is.
Background
Why Orlando.
Hospitality management at the Rosen College, University of Central Florida. Then two decades of accounts and project management on trade show and event programs.
Orlando is one of the busiest event cities on earth. Something is always loading in somewhere. That means the vendors are here, the carriers know the routes, the labor knows the buildings, and the whole city runs on the same calendar we do. It is a hard place to be casual about events, which is exactly why a business like this should sit here.
It is probably on your calendar too, at some point. And when it is not, we ship wherever you are going.
