"We have long recognized that designers and event producers have wanted alternatives to the current marketplace," noted Stuart CEO Michael Berman. "Having worked with Top Productions over the past several years, company President Peter Daly and I knew that our combined offerings would provide the marketplace with such a solution. We really couldn’t be more excited about the possibilities."
Daly agreed, commenting, "This new company operating under one roof provides our customers with unprecedented resources. With Stuart’s enormous inventory of party rental and décor options, and Top Productions’ unrivaled inventory of clearspan structure and tenting in Northern California, we can now service every event along the West Coast." Daly, who will serve as Vice President, Business Development, went on to state, "The region needed a local, family-owned option that could also service large events. Our clients are thrilled they will no longer have to use corporate or private-equity-owned companies to handle their largest events. With this merger, the Stuart Rental Company will be able to handle any and all of our clients’ production needs in house."
Stuart’s Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing, R. Andrew Sutton said, "The new company brings together two of the best event companies on the West Coast and will allow us both to expand breadth of product, technical capability and operational efficiencies. Clients needing large-scale production and event capabilities should breathe a sigh of relief: there is a new option in town to get quality product, great service and competitive pricing."
The new Stuart has more than 100,000 feet of inventory throughout the Bay Area and a trained sales staff averaging more than 11 years of event planning and design experience. The companies have won a combined 5 Gala awards for achievement in special event design and production, a total virtually unmatched in the Special Events industry.
