Our company recently hosted a vibrant open house at its newly established Las Vegas facility, attracting over 300 attendees eager to explore the latest innovations in custom framing and large format graphics. This event marked a significant milestone in our company’s journey to expand further west. Like many of our expansions, this expansion was something that had been requested by our clients for a long time. We’re happy to say, what happens at Las Vegas, starts at Olympus Group!
The momentum for this expansion began in 2020 when we started to seriously explore the potential of entering the Las Vegas market. In January 2022, we took a decisive step by acquiring Screaming Images, a company renowned for designing, producing, and installing highly custom large format graphics for casinos, sports teams, and events across the greater Southwest region for over a decade. The integration of Screaming Images into Olympus Custom Print allowed us to blend their established network of clients with our own, significantly strengthening our presence at the Las Vegas location.
Our shared capabilities and streamlined processes meant that we could deliver an even higher level of service and satisfaction to our customers. Following the acquisition, we transitioned Screaming Images into Olympus Custom Print – Las Vegas, bringing in new equipment, upgrading our backend operations, and relocating to a larger facility close to the Las Vegas Strip. This strategic move not only positioned us better within the market but also provided the space necessary to establish our long-awaited custom frame shop—something that had been consistently requested by our clients.
“We love the Las Vegas market. There is so much activity and excitement in the city: countless events, the largest tradeshow market in the U.S. adding pro sports teams and tons of construction. Our ability to open a large printing facility in the heart of the city has afforded us the opportunity to better support key customers and events with quick-turns and local sports. Our foray into opening a Frame Shop has helped us offer a wide range of products to our tradeshow customers and tackle some extremely unique and creative projects.” – Brian Adam | President
Since launching our custom frame shop, we have been in full swing for over a year. Our offerings include a range of eye-catching custom Snap-Tube and SEG designs, showcasing the creativity and craftsmanship that Olympus is known for. The recent open house served as a perfect opportunity to unveil a few of these recent creations and demonstrate our capabilities as an organization. Some of the highlights included a massive 133’l x 83’w x 14’h Snap-Tube frame and a gigantic “donut” frame whose pillowcase covering was illuminated by rotating RGB lights.
The open house was not just an exhibition of our work; it was also a celebration of our client relationships. We aimed to create a welcoming atmosphere for networking, complete with a variety of beverages, games, and delicious goodies. Attendees enjoyed mingling and discussing new projects, all while taking in the stunning displays of our custom frames. A special highlight of the evening was the appearance of Jerry Robinson, Las Vegas Raiders’ #57, along with the Raiderettes, who joined us for a photo opportunity and autograph signing. Their presence added an extra layer of excitement to the event, making it a memorable experience for everyone involved.
As many of our clients were in town for the 2024 United Print Expo, we hoped to kick off their busy week with a blend of fun and inspiration. The feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive, reaffirming our belief in the importance of fostering connections and celebrating our shared successes. Seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones was truly a pleasure, and it reminded us of the community we are building around Olympus Custom Print.
“Olympus have been fortunate to build a great team in Las Vegas. We’ve added over 40 new team members in the past year and every single one of them comes with experience in large format printing. A talented/experienced staff has allowed us to run not walk in Las Vegas and our 2024 revenue is on track to be double what it was in 2023.” – Brian Adam | President
