SourceOne Events started the first warehouse in 2005 in Mike and Jackie's garage. Pictured is our first employee, Bill Thorsen, who is still with SOE today.

In 2006, we moved into our second warehouse and first office. We had our first trade show as a company in February 2006 at The Fairmont in Chicago. Then in March 2006, we had our very first out of town event at The Atlanta Convention Center.

In December 2007, we expanded to our third warehouse and second office in Broadview, IL.

In December 2012, we expanded to our fourth warehouse and office space in Elmhurst, IL. Then in October 2012, we were awarded the in-house contract at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel.

In 2015, SourceOne Events opened up our first warehouse in Orlando, FL that led to many more opportunities.

In January of 2016, we had received the in-house contract at The Rosen Hotels in Orlando, FL. We then expanded again due to the rapid growth of our company and moved into our Lombard, IL office and warehouse.

During the hardships of 2020, we had to go the extra mile and come up with new and innovative ideas to keep things moving along and hoping for a light at the end of the tunnel. We went from 45 employees in 2019 to 7 employees during 2020.

In 2022, finally, things started to pick back up again, and SourceOne Events is back at it! We moved back to Elmhurst, IL in our new upgraded warehouse and office space.
