The Trade Group is Relocating to Grapevine, TX

6/7/2018
The Trade Group, one of the nation’s leading event marketing and creative design firms, will be celebrating its relocation to 2060 Enchanted Way, Grapevine, Texas with a groundbreaking ceremony at the site on Friday, June 8 at 10:30 a.m. Currently based in Carrollton, Texas, the company’s ongoing expansion plans, combined with the prime location and economic appeal of Grapevine, prompted the move.

According to Chris Stone, President and CEO of The Trade Group, “Our entire organization is excited about the move to Grapevine and the opportunity for growth it provides. We look forward to this new phase in our journey as we make Grapevine the new home for our global headquarters. The relocation to Grapevine will play an integral role in the company’s growth over the next several years.”

The Trade Group’s Grapevine location will provide substantially more space than the company’s existing 120,000 sq. ft. facility. The state-of-the-art global headquarters will expand from one story to two and include a planned 200,000 sq. ft. once complete. Along with expanded space for graphics production, fabrication, staff offices and the warehouse, the Grapevine facility will also include an onsite café and modern, casual meeting spaces for employees.

Local dignitaries, including Grapevine Mayor William D. Tate, will join the ownership team as well as other representatives from The Trade Group for the celebration. Says Tate, “The City of Grapevine maintains a strategic focus on attracting, retaining and growing quality businesses in our community, and I am thrilled to add The Trade Group to our growing group of companies headquartered in Grapevine.”

Founded in 1986, The Trade Group has grown from a handful of employees to more than 150 today. Originally known for its award winning work in the trade show and live event space, the company has also established itself as an expert, innovator and full-service provider in the esports industry. The company recently joined forces with LST Marketing to form eGency Global, a firm specializing in everything esports, including event production, customer/fan engagement, sponsorship and talent marketing, data analytics, media and strategic marketing.

According to Bob Farley, Economic Development Director for the City of Grapevine, The Trade Group will be a welcome addition to the city. As he explains, “Innovation and imagination help define what makes Grapevine unique and we are proud to have another company that so strongly represents those values.”
