Our Story
We all have a story to tell and ours began by looking for our name.
Facet achieved Women owned Business Certification in 2001 and designed and built its first US international pavilion in Melbourne, Australia in 2011. Facet has focused on expanding its network of international partners and supporting US companies planning to export overseas and international companies planning to market and exhibit their products and services in North America.
And the rest… as they say, is history.
The back room story.
“I am often asked how Facet started
and I usually reply that
this might take a while…”
Facet began as a boutique marketing consultancy and we built our reputation on providing strategic marketing plans for large OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and Tier One suppliers in the Automotive and Manufacturing sectors. Today we continue to apply the same thoughtful strategic approach to designing exhibits and pavilions and managing cross cultural marketing challenges.
Over the years, I’ve been privileged to spend my time with a group of very talented hardworking creative people who have all been dedicated to the care and success of our customers. I have had the opportunity to travel and visit with our friends, customers and suppliers in many different countries. And, while running a business has never been an easy ride, it’s been the experiences and the amazing people who have helped generate the creative ideas that we share with our clients today.
Facet is a company that has always valued integrity over crossing the line, of putting principles and the environment before profits, and treating everyone with kindness, loyalty and respect. We believe in giving back, speaking up when it counts, and sharing all we have. The world may change, but our values remain steady. Facet continues to expand internationally within a circle of trusted partners in the USA, UK, Canada, Germany, UAE and Australia. I hope that once you get to know us, you’ll always return.
