Aria AV, a national full-service audiovisual company, launched a new Las Vegas warehouse earlier this month. Located at 4460 West Reno, the facility is near many of the city’s major event venues. In addition to its full range of AV equipment—including products like Be Matrix LED tiles, Samsung monitors and touchscreens, and Apple technology—Aria has debuted new items like quick-set kiosks, counters and chairs for events.

“For the last eight years, we have been traveling frequently to Las Vegas for events. Our enhanced production facilities in Vegas will allow us to further our goal [of having] the best customer service in the rental industry, bar none,” said Niraj Jain, CEO of Aria AV.

The Las Vegas facility will operate utilizing Flex Rental Solutions ERP, as it does at its Chicago headquarters, with mirrored inventory as well. Take a look at five of the hottest products in AV rentals right now, according to Jain, that are all available through Aria AV.
