What started as a one-man business has grown to become a thriving company and today, Pacific Group has customers around the globe. Tucked inside the Foothills Industrial Park, Pacific Group has 15 full-time employees working from their 15,000-sq.-ft. facility. Over the past 15 years, PGD has proudly worked one-onone with many of the largest and well-known companies in the world. Project scope ranges from trade show exhibits, shopping mall kiosks and theme elements to museums. In all projects, PGD strives to maintain the highest level of quality and professionalism that their clients have come to expect and deserve. PGD has worked with a wide variety of businesses that include the oil and gas sector, the agricultural industry, the educational sector, sports as well as arts and culture. PGD have designed and fabricated many mobile displays that travel throughout North America – many of which are used in the educational sector. “Our mobile marketing trailers are on the road during the school year educating children with onboard agricultural exhibits that are geared toward school curriculum,” says Brett DeSouza, general manager. For anyone who has attended the Global Petroleum Show, PGD has worked extensively with many North American com-

panies that are represented at the trade show. Likewise, their exhibits are found at museums throughout Western Canada. In fact, Pacific Group is one of the only custom exhibit builders in Western Canada. “Companies will come to us with a general idea, but they don’t always know what they want: how the display will interact with clients, unique space requirements, considerations for public and private space,” says Bobby Scott, vice president. “Usually we build an exhibit around their brand and what they want to accomplish at the trade show or event.” According to Mathew Schmor, senior designer, PGD helps their clients through the entire process. “It’s a mixed bag with respect to what clients are looking for; sometimes they have strong brand guidelines, but generally we come up with a number of options and then refine it based on the customer’s needs,” says Schmor. From interactive games for children’s exhibits to corporate customers, Pacific Group offers both mechanical and electronic products and services. “We offer a wide range of creative services which is accompanied by research and development: it’s working side by side with our customers and developing the idea in order to bring it to life. Most exhibits start with a simple conversation and with time develop into a full design solution,” adds Schmor.
Pacific Group has evolved into a full-service industry leader when it comes to custom exhibits. “Since our inception, we have stayed the course and grown the business to serve many business sectors, and we are continually looking to broaden our horizons,” adds DeSouza. As PGD celebrates their 15th anniversary, they would like to extend a sincere thank you to all of their customers, business partners, suppliers and employees who have contributed to their success!
