The marquee becomes a temporary tent supported by four poles

Marquees are portable tent assemblies that, when opened, look like gazebos. They are portable and very easy to assemble or set up. Marquees are usually used by companies or small businesses during corporate events such as trade shows, bazaars, and other functions. Since they're fully customizable, marquees are great tools to reach out to the public and advertise your company's products and services.

Many companies have their marquees customized to represent their corporate ideals and themes, as well as to match their products. Some even have their company logo printed onto their marquees to really catch the eye of potential customers or business partners.

Marquees are constructed in a synthetic tent material that's spread over a collapsible frame. When folded out, the marquee becomes a temporary tent supported by four poles. The synthetic tent material provides shade and displays the company's branding. Marquees can easily be folded back down for easy storage and transportation, and are very reusable.

This is a great way of advertising what your company can offer the public. You can ask marquee manufacturers to customize your company marquee's color, design, logos, and any other design element you have in mind.

Marquees are not only for business, but can also be used for anybody who needs one for a picnic along the beach or barbeque gathering in the backyard. It doesn't really matter what the occasion is -- it serves the purpose of providing portable shelter. But for the most part, marquees are used in commercial events, serving the dual purpose of providing outdoor shelter and promoting the company using it.

If your own company or business would benefit from joining commercial events, such as fairs, expos, and sponsored parties, then investing in a marquee or two would be a good idea. Instead of being limited to a run-of-the-mill booth or a table in a dark corner, you can simply bring your marquee to the event, pitch it, and enjoy a much larger space to work with.

And, of course, a brightly-coloured marquee will surely catch the eye of potential customers and business partners during the event. In one swoop, you'll have improved your operations during the event AND expanded your customer base at the same time.

Marquees are particularly useful in sunnier locations, such as beaches and other seaside locations. Aside from keeping you and your colleagues protected from sunburn, it also helps the people around you remember your company and recall it in the future.

If your company is tailored towards younger customers, then joining or sponsoring beach-side parties would definitely give you a lot of mileage, especially if you have a few marquees that offer a little welcome shade.

Marquees are very durable, lightweight, and extremely portable -- they can be located anywhere with a flat surface. It's a good investment if your business relies heavily on advertising and aggressive field marketing to survive. Take a while to think of ways to make your company's own marquee colorful and eye-catching, then go ahead and have it made!
