Warehouse Manager

The InProduction team has spent the better part of the last decade combining the best seating and staging companies into a one-stop shop for most of what is needed to produce an event. Starting with SGA Production Services, we added and integrated T&B Equipment, CommuniLux Productions, Nussli U.S., and Seating Solutions to become today’s InProduction. These acquisitions have allowed InProduction to evolve into the largest provider of temporary seating, staging, structures, and scenic production for the United States events industry.

The Company is backed by ZMC. ZMC is a leading private equity firm comprised of experienced investors and executives who invest in, and manage, a diverse group of media and communications enterprises.
