Business Overview

Founding Story

EJH Distribution was founded by Edward Haynes, who began working in the events industry at age 15. He launched the company in 2019 with the goal of bringing a curated selection of modular and temporary structures to the North American market.

EJH is built around a team with close to 100 years of combined experience in the manufacturing and installation of temporary structures, working alongside a sister company, Superior Tent Rentals and Installations.

Business Model and Approach

EJH operates as both a product distributor and a project consulting partner. The company holds exclusive or primary North American distribution agreements for several European manufacturers and also maintains a broader sourcing network that includes Losberger De Boer, Anchor Industries, and Warner Shelter Systems, among others.

EJH has established a design and development fee to protect the consulting work it provides during project scoping, preventing clients from using EJH’s sourcing and planning work to purchase directly from manufacturers.

Growth and Market Position

EJH has built its client base through industry relationships, referrals, trade shows, and direct outreach. The company has placed over 50 major infrastructure units across North America under the management of General Manager Jacob Marler, and over 150 De Waard glamping tents across the US and Canada.

EJH has worked with clients across glamping, hospitality, sports and entertainment, and experiential marketing, and has completed projects for organizations including Shortgrass Resort, Baijiu, Rogers Stadium, and AT&T via Wasserman.

Comparison Positioning

AttributeEJH DistributionTypical alternative
Content and marketing approach EJH Distribution focuses on real-life, field-tested content and project imagery rather than marketing renderings. Primary identified competitor (referred to as “UD”) relies on marketing materials that lack field-tested specificity.
Product range in North America EJH Distribution offers an all-in-one, versatile portfolio spanning multiple structure categories and manufacturers, functioning as a single sourcing partner. Competitors are typically single-product or narrower-range suppliers.
Canvas vs. PVC glamping tents De Waard canvas tents distributed by EJH use cotton-polyester Tencate fabric that breathes naturally, creating a more comfortable environment. PVC-based glamping tents do not allow the tent to breathe naturally.
