DALLAS, May 6, 2024 - Diverse Companies, a collective of brands instituted by Wes Hardin, is thrilled to introduce its newest member: Mario & Associates. This acquisition creates a unique full-service rep group with sales representatives serving Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas.
Mario Moreno and Bert Trumble, originally from Texas and Arkansas, respectively, embarked on this journey after accumulating 16 years of valuable experience at another prominent showroom. Mario's immersion began with an apprenticeship under a renowned sales rep, eventually earning his territory upon retirement. Driven for autonomy and control over their future, Mario and Bert established their new venture. In May 2007, Mario and Bert brought Mario & Associates to life and are approaching 17 years of business this May.
With Mario's extensive 30-year tenure and Bert's 20-year expertise, they bring a wealth of knowledge to Diverse Companies. Today, their company proudly represents esteemed brands like Meri Meri, Anna Griffin, Rosanne Beck, Notes & Queries, Quilling Card, and Taylor Paladino. Operating in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas, they cater to a diverse clientele ranging from gift stores to museums.
What fuels their passion for this business is the relationships they have cultivated—with customers, suppliers, and our dedicated sales representatives. Mario said, "It's a journey marked by challenges and rewards, and we're committed to delivering exceptional service while fostering solid partnerships within the industry."
Though Wes Hardin and Diverse Companies have acquired Mario & Associates, there will be zero changes in the day-to-day operations, and business will remain as usual.
Wes Hardin, Founder and CEO of Diverse Companies, is excited about bringing Mario & Associates to the collective and says, "Mario and Bert's entrepreneurial journey, spanning 17 years, embodies the essence of what we stand for within Diverse Companies. Their alliance with Diverse Companies illustrates the boundless opportunities that arise when different perspectives converge towards a shared vision."
