It is a dynamic company that is still inventing itself after more than sixteen years in business. I am excited about all of the different operating units under one roof where I will be given the opportunity to provide complete rental solutions to my client base, including all manner of event rentals such as tenting, tableware, lounge furniture, high end portable restroom solutions, large scale storage for event organizers and even a multi-functional event space; all under one roof.  The different operating units under the umbrella of the Absolute Group are designed to best serve the interests of our customers and simultaneously grow multiple revenue streams and I am free to offer them to my customers directly. I believe Absolute is well positioned for an accelerated growth cycle that will deliver top notch equipment and services to its diversified customer base, both old and new."

Paul Kenyon stated, "The addition of Karlo provides Absolute Tent & Event Services with someone who has tremendous insight into local market trends and the people who set them. We have brought Karlo in for far more than his ability to sell, but rather his ability to help us shape the direction of this company going forward and oversee new equipment acquisitions to exceed the expectations of a very discerning client base." Absolute Tent & Event Services has seen double digit growth in recent years despite some fairly significant economic considerations.

"With Karlo on board, working under the direction of Michelle Nicol CERP, our Event Sales Manager,  it is our expectation that those numbers will continue to remain strong and we will begin to serve new clients and markets we have yet to penetrate."
