Align Exhibits Expands Florida Presence with Acquisition of Suncoast Displays

TAMPA, FL - Align Exhibits announced today that, effective February 13, 2026, it has acquired Suncoast Displays, a Tampa-based provider of trade show exhibits and event marketing solutions that has served clients for more than 35 years. The acquisition strengthens Align’s presence in the Southeast and reinforces its strategy of building a scalable, operationally driven organization for exhibitors nationwide.

Suncoast Displays has built a strong reputation for client service and long-standing relationships throughout Florida and beyond. Longtime owners Paul and Carole Dale have retired from the business. Align Exhibits will continue serving Suncoast clients with the existing Tampa-based team in place, ensuring continuity and stability during the integration process.

“This acquisition is about alignment in every sense of the word,” said Troy Trice, CEO of Align Exhibits. “Suncoast built a respected operation grounded in relationships and execution. Our role is to enhance that foundation with expanded infrastructure, stronger operational systems, and a unified team positioned to support clients at scale.”

Suncoast Displays will continue operating from its current Tampa facility at 5905 Johns Rd, Tampa, FL 33634 during the integration period. Branding will transition to Align Exhibits over the coming months as part of a phased integration plan.

As part of the integration, clients will gain access to Align’s proprietary Alignment 360™ service model, providing greater visibility into exhibit assets, streamlined logistics coordination, and centralized project oversight. Offering fixed costs on trade show labor and freight, the program is designed to deliver consistency, accountability, and clarity across every stage of the trade show lifecycle. Align’s expanded project management and support structure will further strengthen execution and client experience.

The acquisition and expansion into Florida follows Align Exhibits’ recent growth initiatives, including the establishment of its new headquarters facility in Cedar Park, Texas. Since its founding, Align has grown from six founding team members to 38 employees across multiple markets, reflecting its accelerated expansion and long-term investment in infrastructure and client experience.

“Our vision is to build a unified operating model that brings clarity, accountability, and execution to the trade show environment,” Trice added. “Florida is a key market, and this move strengthens our ability to serve it with consistency and scale.”
