Blue Sky Exhibits Wins 2017 Small Business of the Year Award
Marietta, Georgia (PRWEB) June 15, 2017 -- The Cobb Chamber of Commerce awarded Marietta-based Blue Sky Exhibits the prestigious 2017 Small Business of the Year Award at its First Monday Breakfast this week. The Cobb Chamber recognized 25 small businesses in the community, with Blue Sky Exhibits being distinguished among five finalists and awarded the highest honor. Blue Sky was also recognized as one of the Top 25 Award winners in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2015 and 2016.
Blue Sky Exhibits was co-founded by business partners Don Keller and Tim Kelley in 2003 when they realized there was a need in the exhibit industry that wasn’t being met.
“After 9/11, the exhibit industry changed. Travel slowed down and it had a major impact on exhibit companies,” said Don Keller, owner/co-founder of Blue Sky Exhibits. “We realized there was a growing need in the industry for an exhibit company that brought true creativity, maximum value and deeper, longer lasting customer relationships. That was the inspiration behind Blue Sky Exhibits.”
More than 13 years after its founding, the company has become a thriving business with 29 full time employees and 92 clients across the United States. Blue Sky Exhibits has corporate offices in Marietta, Georgia with fabrication and warehousing in Atlanta with additional warehouses in Chicago, Las Vegas and Orlando. Their loyal customers include Amazon, Cartoon Network, Century 21, Delta Airlines, Fruit of the Loom, Merial, SanMar and many others. True to their values, some of their client relationships began before the inception of Blue Sky Exhibits.
“Don and Tim’s dedication to creativity, service and value truly set them apart,” said David Connell, President and CEO of the Cobb Chamber. “It is their commitment to forging personal relationships with businesses both small and large, as well as the time, energy and resources they dedicate to supporting our community’s charitable organizations that make them inspirational leaders and business owners; they are most deserving of this prestigious award.”
Blue Sky Exhibits consistently creates vivid, engaging environments that grab attention on the trade show floor. Their exhibits often win “Most Memorable” or “Best of Show” awards due to the company’s creative innovation, expert craftsmanship and perfectly executed tech components. Blue Sky Exhibits is committed to showcasing their clients with an unforgettable brand experience, face-to-face marketing and compelling strategies. Their trade show marketing services have yielded considerable results for each of their clients across a variety of industries.
"It is such an incredible honor to be recognized by the Cobb Chamber as the 2017 Small Business of the Year,” said Tim Kelley, owner/co-founder of Blue Sky Exhibits. “As an entrepreneur, I am grateful that the Cobb Chamber has been there for Blue Sky at all stages of our growth over the past 13 years. We are incredibly honored and humbled to receive this award, and are thankful for the ongoing support of our phenomenal Blue Sky team, our families and our friends.”
