Event Marketer Fab 50 2016 Exhibit Fabricator

It’s September! And activity is CLEARLY on the upswing based on your design and quote requests last week. Talk about a green flag start to the fall season. Thanks as always for trusting us with your projects. It’s very much appreciated!

In addition to this week being busy, it’s also been FABULOUS! Why you ask? Because for the fourth straight year, Classic Exhibits Inc. was honored as an Event Marketer FAB 50. The FAB 50 names the Top 50 Exhibit Fabricators in North America. This is a judged listing, not a popularity contest, complete with a comprehensive application and background check.

We are proud and humbled by this honor, considering the other 49 honorees. All amazing companies in our industry. And 30 are also Classic Exhibits Distributors/Partners. Wow!

So a huge KUDOS to those named to the 2016 Fab 50. Very well deserved to one and all.

Event Marketer Fab 50 Exhibit Fabricators

We’re the highlight one with the arrow. 😉

Like you, we take our responsibilities very seriously and even personally. This is a testament to our employees — the Designers, Project Managers, Detailers, Accounting, Purchasing, and our talented Production team. This recognition speaks to their commitment to Shared Success which serves as the foundation of our company. Thank you.

Finally, a BIG THANKS to Event Marketer and to the judges. We’re not a traditional custom house, although we build custom exhibits. In some ways, it would be easy to overlook us. And yet… you haven’t. You recognized the qualities that make us different from every other exhibit builder. For that, we are very, very grateful.

Finally, for all the parents reading this, school is back in session. For those with young kids (K thru 12) can I get an AMEN?! I don’t know about you, but I love my kiddos dearly, but I am so happy to be back on a normal schedule. Summer is supposed to be a time for rest and relaxation. Not in my house. It’s all about chasing kids. 🙂

Looking forward to seeing and talking to you during the busy fall season.

Have a great weekend with you and yours.
