Suwanee based Georgia Expo Manufacturing is the largest U.S. manufacturer of pipe and drape and provides a variety of products that divide, define and design event spaces across a multitude of industries.
The privately held corporation was established in 1986 when Philip DiTrolio saw a vision to pair his love for manufacturing with a need to grow the product offerings to the trade show and event industry. Operating as a one-man show for a year or two, once he made his first profits DiTrolio brought all manufacturing in-house. The first punch press was added, with drape and skirt sewing machines shortly after. In 1996, the company moved into a 10,000 square foot facility. In 2001, upgraded again to a 12,000-foot facility. Then in 2012, moved into their current home, a 90,000 square foot facility on Martin Farm Rd. in Suwanee, and added another 17,000 square foot facility for storage cart, table and welding production.
While the company has grown in the past 30 years, the core values remain the same. They believe that American manufacturing ensures the highest quality products, the quickest turnaround time, the lowest prices and the best possible customer service. To quote Founder and CEO, Philip DiTrolio, “Our strength comes from the teamwork and our unwavering need to not only establish stellar customer service and satisfaction but to build relationships with each and every client. We’re always looking ahead for ways to further improve our exhibition equipment and the buying experience.” For more information, visit georgiaexpo.com.
