PORTLAND, Ore. – March 12, 2009 – The Carlson Group, an in-store marketing services firm, announced today its 10 year anniversary. Since 1999, The Carlson Group (TCG) has evolved into a full service, global in-store solution provider with locations in Shanghai, Portland and Chicago.

"We feel very fortunate and humbled to be celebrating 10 years in such a highly competitive industry," said Greg Carlson, Principal of The Carlson Group. "This milestone is attributable to three key things—great clients who embrace partnership, great business partners who we share common goals and mutual respect, and very talented and committed employees," said John Carlson, Principal of The Carlson Group.

Key Milestones...

• ProjectLink™: In 2002, launched ProjectLink™, an online project management system allowing clients to access and obtain project information and documents from anywhere at any time.
• OnTrack™: In 2005, launched an online order and inventory management system allowing clients to allocate inventories, place and track orders, and check on inventory status.
• Operations Expansion: In 2006, to meet the needs of its clients’ growing global and long term needs, TCG opened a new office in Shanghai, China, and relocated its Chicago office to 20,000 square foot facility.
• Brand update: In 2007, TCG introduced a new logo and brand identity to reflect its evolution into a full service, global, in-store marketing firm.
• Leadership: In 2008, TCG appointed Mark Adams to the role of Chief Operating Officer.

"To commemorate this special milestone we created a unique logo that ties nicely into our newly created identity system. The parts of the logo have been inspired and literally crafted by the number and therefore capture and celebrate the essence and importance of ten years in our industry," said Thomas Chisari, Director of Design for The Carlson Group.
