HABAA began as "God's Little Gift" in 1980. Gary Page founded the
business by selling custom gift certificates and balloons out of his spare
bedroom and garage. As the balloon part of the business took off, Gary
renamed the company Floating Flowers.
In 1983 he outgrew his domestic headquarters and moved into his first
office/warehouse complex. With the advent of the internet and the addition
to the business of www.heliumandballoons.com, Gary decided to change the
business name to Helium & Balloons Across America. The name better matched
what the company had evolved into during the 21st century. Throughout the
years, Gary's vision has remained clear: To provide exceptional products
and first class service to his clients with quality, service, integrity and
innovation. Gary's vision has been realized largely in part to the work
environment, where a focus on good morals, faith and business ethics is critical.
Currently HABAA operates out of two large warehouses in Charlotte, North
Carolina. Support departments include: sales, marketing, account management,
customer service, product development and management, operations and accounting.
The 2008 addition of executives, Brad Williams, EVP and Sean Fitzsimmons,
COO has contributed to HABAA's efficiency and growth.
