Most exhibitors end up managing four or five vendors for a single show — one designs, one fabricates, one prints, one ships, one installs — and every gap between them becomes the exhibitor's problem at two in the morning during move-in.
We do all of it in house. One contract, one point of contact, and nobody to blame when something is missing.
Design starts with constraints, not aesthetics. Before anything is drawn we establish your footprint and booth number, the venue and hall and what it permits in height and rigging, the show's sightline rules, what the booth needs to accomplish, how many staff will work it, and what you are shipping in.
You then receive full 3D renderings showing the booth from the angles a visitor actually sees — down the aisle, at the corner, standing inside it. Renderings are revised until they are right. Moving a wall in a drawing is free; moving it on the show floor is not.
Design also covers the traffic plan, which is the part most exhibitors skip and most regret. Where does a visitor enter? Where do they stop? Where does a conversation happen without blocking the entrance? Where does your team stand so they read as approachable rather than defensive? A beautiful booth that traps visitors in a corner underperforms a plainer booth that flows.
Every design is checked against venue and organizer rules before fabrication, and we prepare the drawing package for approval.
We own the printers. That matters for three reasons: colour control, turnaround, and the ability to reprint when something changes at the last minute.
We produce dye-sublimated fabric for seamless tension graphics, direct-print rigid substrates, backlit fabric and film for illuminated elements, cut vinyl for logos and lettering, and large-format soft signage for hanging structures. Everything is colour-managed against your brand references rather than printed to whatever the machine defaults to.
Because printing is in house, a corrected graphic can be reprinted and installed in New Orleans inside a day. That is the difference between a typo you live with for three days and one nobody ever sees. Companies that broker their printing cannot do that.
If you do not have print-ready artwork, our design team produces it. If you have brand guidelines, we work inside them.
Structures are built and fully pre-fit in our shop before they ship. Every component is assembled, checked for fit, then dismantled for transport. Nothing arrives at a New Orleans dock having never been put together.
We fabricate custom structures, modular systems, reconfigurable frame systems, double-deck structures, hanging elements, counters and casework, and product-specific display fixtures. Everything is engineered to be transported, installed and struck repeatedly without degrading, and to be re-skinned and re-sized for the next show rather than discarded.
For large-format and double-deck builds we produce engineered drawings, stamped where the venue requires it, and handle the submission.
Getting the exhibit to New Orleans is not the hard part. Getting it to your space at the right time is.
The Morial Convention Center runs assigned target arrival windows. Freight arriving outside its window waits, and while it waits your install crew stands idle and the work compresses into overtime hours. We plan the target time into the schedule from the beginning, route the shipment to hit it, and manage the paperwork with the official contractor.
Material handling — drayage — is charged by the general contractor by weight at published per-hundredweight rates, and it is one of the largest and least predictable line items at any show. We reduce it where it can legitimately be reduced: engineering crate weights down, consolidating shipments so you are not paying minimums repeatedly, and ordering against the advance rate rather than the show-site rate. We will always tell you what to expect rather than letting it appear on the final invoice.
We handle advance warehouse delivery where the show offers it, direct-to-show delivery where that is better, and return logistics after dismantle.
Our own crews. Not a labor broker, not a contractor found last week — people who have built these specific structures before.
Install is scheduled against the show's move-in window and coordinated with the general contractor. We work within union jurisdiction where it applies and manage that relationship as part of the job. On the floor we handle structure, graphics, flooring, lighting, furniture placement and final dress, and we do not leave until the booth is show-ready and you have walked it.
Dismantle begins when the show closes. We strike, pack properly and manage outbound freight. Your team leaves when the show ends rather than staying to supervise a teardown.
We also provide on-call support during show days. A damaged graphic panel, a failed light, a fixture that needs moving — someone is reachable.
If you exhibit more than once a year, storing the exhibit is cheaper and simpler than rebuilding it. We store in a climate-controlled New Orleans facility, racked and inventoried.
Storage includes condition inspection on return from each show, refurbishment and repair as needed, graphic replacement between shows so the structure stays while the message changes, inventory records of exactly what you own and where it is, and preparation and pull for the next show. Clients can inspect stored property by appointment, by video walkthrough or by requested photographs.
The practical benefit: your next show becomes a phone call.
Every show sells services through its official contractor — electrical, rigging labor, material handling, booth cleaning, internet, plumbing and lead retrieval. Each has its own form and its own advance deadline, and each costs meaningfully more if ordered late.
We review the exhibitor kit for your show, identify every service your booth requires, order against the advance-rate deadline, and reconcile at actual. You do not need to read a sixty-page kit.
Not every exhibitor should rent, and we will say so.
Renting is right when you show in different cities at different sizes, when your message changes between shows, when you do not want to carry storage and refurbishment, or when you want current-generation LED without owning panels that date quickly.
Buying is right when you show the same footprint repeatedly with stable branding and a predictable calendar. We build for purchase, and we store and maintain what we build.
The middle path most exhibitors never hear about: own the structural components you use every time, rent the elements that change — LED, furniture, specialty fixtures. Lower annual cost, no loss of consistency.
When design, printing, fabrication and installation live under separate roofs, every handoff is a failure point, and every failure becomes a conversation between vendors who each believe it is someone else's fault.
We own all four. Wrong graphic, we reprint it. Component does not fit, we fix it in our own shop. Install runs long, our crew stays. No coordination overhead for you and nobody to point at.
