There is no other company in Canada that provides such an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of all the elements that must come together in order to produce a successful event. The company is the acknowledged Canadian leader in exhibition and special event project management, transportation and logistical management services.

As an official event carrier, Lange provides professional, on-time and affordable services from anywhere in North America for exhibitors, suppliers and participants.

Services include transportation, materials handling / drayage, floor management, move-in scheduling, advance show receiving, customs brokerage, bonded warehousing, short and long-term storage, and equipment rentals including security cages, dollies, golf carts and forklifts.

Specialized services include an electronics and high value products (HVP) program to handle computer systems, automatic teller machines, medical and industrial equipment, sensitive electronics, store fixtures and furniture.

Lange’s main facility is a modern warehouse in Mississauga, Ontario near Highway 401 and Dixie Road. It is ideal for short and long-term storage of domestic and bonded material. For companies whose transportation and warehouse needs include a distribution element,

Lange can develop flexible customer driven distribution plans tailored to each company’s individual requirements.
Lange provides dry and heated pre-show / post-show domestic and bonded storage for exhibitors who ship in advance of move-in. Exhibitors appreciate the opportunity to ship in advance since this allows time to replace missing or damaged pieces. This is critical for foreign exhibitors where international shippers can encounter possible customs delays.

Lange’s fleet consists of a wide variety of general and specialized vehicles. The company’s inventory includes 26-foot straight trucks, with or without power tailgates, 48-foot flat floor and drop frame trailers and 53-foot trailers. All units are equipped with air-ride suspension, furniture blankets, straps, decking bars and complete logistical tracking.

MODE Accessories launched Western Canada Shows in Calgary in February and June. Lange handled both events as the project manager as well as materials handling and official carrier.

For the Motorcycle Shows, Lange manages the freight for the major exhibitors. Starting with the Toronto Motorcycle Show in December and traveling across Canada to Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Quebec City and Montreal, Lange handled nine tractor-trailer loads of freight for BMW, Honda, Suzuki Canada, Harley Davidson and Kawasaki.

Starting with the largest show in Canada, the CGTA Gift Show, Lange is gearing up for another busy gift show season. Lange is an official carrier for the CGTA, plus the Toronto International, Alberta, Montreal, Vancouver and Maritime Gift Shows, handling hundreds of shipments for these events. Lange also handles the materials handling, floor management and other roles for the CGTA, Montreal and Maritime Shows.

Lange was retained by HP Canada to assist in the relocation of the information networking equipment of University Health Networks. The equipment was moved from a congested area in downtown Toronto to a high security building in Mississauga. This is an ongoing, extremely time sensitive, 20-week program.

As part of TD Canada Trust’s acquisition of Laurentian Bank of Canada, 43 branches were closed in one day and employees transferred to new locations. Lange’s HVP (High Value Product) group was contracted to assist with this move.

Lange has been selected to provide project management services for a new Wal-Mart Canada show to be held in October at the Toronto Congress Center. This event was only given the go ahead in late July. Services will include market research, media selection and placement, and the control of all operational aspects of the event. Since 1999, Lange has supplied similar services for the 500,000 square foot Wal-Mart February Manager’s Meeting and Vendor Fair.

Greg Smith, Vice President of Sales at Lange was inducted into the Canadian Association of Exposition Management (CAEM) Hall of Fame at the 2004 CAEM Annual Conference. Greg has been with Lange since 1993 and prior to that he spent 18 years in the transportation industry specializing in the movement of trade show freight. Eric Lange, President and founder of Lange was inducted into the CAEM Hall of Fame in 2003.

"Your organization is truly outstanding. I have never experienced such an efficient and smooth running exposition contractor. This is apparent in all stages, but I was particularly impressed with the smooth move in and move out of the exhibitor materials. The sophistication of your exhibit designs and the quality of your graphics exceeded all my expectations. The Canadian Automobile Dealers Association exhibit met all our objectives and even competed architecturally with the most sophisticated and expensive auto exhibits in the show. The bonus, of course, was that everything was under budget".

- R. C. (Rick) Gauthier, President, Canadian Automobile Dealers Association

"I am impressed by the way you manage a show floor. Your efforts contributed to an excellent show and many exhibitors expressed their appreciation for the smooth move in and move out of the show".

- Anita Schachter, Group Manager, Eastern Canadian Gift Shows, dmg world media

"On site, the move in and move out went extremely smoothly due in large part to Lange’s staff".

- Gillian Blakey, Coordinator, Member Services, Baking Council of Canada
