A Little Bit About How We Got Here

The story of Maritz is a unique tale of longevity, adaptation and continuous evolution. In 1894, Edward Maritz started the E. Maritz Jewelry Manufacturing Company, a wholesaler and manufacturer of fine jewelry and engraved watches. During the Great Depression, the company began to sell watches, jewelry and merchandise to large companies – creating a sales incentive and employee rewards business. As the world changes, we continue to transform our organization to meet the changing needs of companies, their customers and their workers.

Today, we are a multi-solution company that empowers our clients to achieve their full potential through understanding, enabling and motivating employees, channel partners and customers.

There Are a Few Things That Really Mean a Lot to Us

  • We believe that by lessening theimpactwe have on our planet and its people, we cantransform our businesses, industries and, most importantly, the next generation. We view sustainability as more than just our environmental footprint. It’s how we conduct ourselves as an ethical, purpose-driven organization. We use our work to drive positive change.

  • We recognize the significance of efforts in the DEIA domain, and our organization has made it a top priority in recent years. Our internal DEIA Council and Employee Resource Groups are the driving force behind our ongoing journey to bring this priority to life.

  • It’s clear that as a leader in the events industry we have a unique opportunity to help this cause, as our teams, our clients and their guests travel the world and find themselves in many places where human trafficking is happening – airports, hotels and transportation hubs. In2013, Maritz was the first company in the meetingsand events space tosign the Tourism Child-Protection Code of Conduct, and we have continued to lead the way in supporting efforts across our industry.
