ties span over 120,000 square feet in produc-
tion space housing custom fabrication shops
capable of manufacturing exhibits and per-
manent architectural components. ASTOUND
began 12 years ago by founder Dale Morgan
and headquartered in Oakville. The company
began working for clients in Asia with some of
the biggest shows mainly along the Pacific Rim.
After recognizing the excellent quality and de-
pendable service ASTOUND routinely provid-
ed, clients in Asia asked the company to begin
working for them on shows in North America.
This was the beginning of ASTOUND’s status as
a global brand over the course of the last ten
years. Two and a half years ago, Heffernan rec-
ognized the potential in this relatively young
up-and-coming company and joined forces
with them to help the company to grow even
further. Since he has been on board, ASTOUND
has created production facilities in Oakville and
Las Vegas, and a design and presentation cen-
tre in Toronto’s Liberty Village.
