The Who, What, When, Where and Why of Centric

You can’t know where you’re going if you don’t know where you’ve been.

Once upon a time on an Arizona fall day, a musician and a techie sat down for a routine lunch at Jason’s Deli not knowing that their sandwiches were about to become the fuel for the brainstorming session of a lifetime. This lunch set the wheels in motion for what would soon become Arizona’s premier event production company, Centric Events & Rentals.

Alright, the lunch might not have been that dramatic, but it was that monumental. Co-founders Dustin Dluhy and Daniel Pitner really did develop the idea for Centric, Arizona Production Rentals back then, over lunch after realizing that there was a huge hole to fill in the event planning industry. Somewhere between creepy Craigslist Joe and international AV companies Centric was born.

What started out as just an idea at lunch has evolved over the last ten years, into a successful, all-inclusive event production company that serves events of all types, sizes, and budgets.

Centric started because two people weren’t afraid to break the mold. Centric has stayed because we do it all, and we do it better.
