Redge Heislitz founded Marathon Exhibits in 2013, bringing over 25 years of exhibit experience from around the globe.



Heislitz didn’t fall into trade shows, he ran. Heislitz first came to the United States from South Africa to run in the 1984 Olympic Marathon. Qualifying for both the ’84 and ’88 Olympics, Heislitz ended up not running but he didn’t let that set him off course. In 1985, while at the New York Marathon visiting Adidas’ booth, he noticed the various exhibits around him and his interest in trade shows and exhibits took off.

​

His cross-country exhibit training has prepared him to run top speed with Marathon Exhibits. “When you run with others, they help you run faster and longer,” said Heislitz. “Marathon Exhibits' vast network allows us to offer our clients expanded quality services to remove the various challenges in their way.”

​

Heislitz’s trade show experience spans the globe. He has provided his clients with quality service from start to finish at events throughout the U.S., Europe, Asia, the Middle East and South America.
