HOLIDAY DESIGNS INC.

What HOLIDAY DESIGNS INC. does

Holiday Designs Inc. (operating as HDMS LLC under the Holiday Designs™ brand) is a privately held American manufacturer of commercial outdoor Christmas displays and holiday lighting products, founded in 1994 and headquartered in Gainesville, Georgia. The company designs, fabricates, and sells large-scale holiday decorations — including modular panel trees (14ft–50ft), tower trees, programmable RGB trees, nativity scenes, pole-mounted silhouettes, lighted arches, ground mounts, fiberglass photo-op props, and a broad range of C7/C9 LED bulbs and accessories — primarily to municipalities, churches, businesses, retail centers, and residential developments across the United States.

All products are manufactured in-house at the company's Gainesville, GA facility using welded steel frames with powder-coated finishes for weather durability, modular panel construction for fast seasonal installation, and commercial-grade LED bulbs rated for 60,000 average hours. The company backs steel frames with a 6-season warranty and electrical components with a 3-season warranty, reflecting a durability-focused product strategy.

The business runs a direct-to-customer, sales-led model: customers browse the e-commerce catalog, request custom quotes for large projects, and place orders via the website or by phone, with purchase orders accepted from government and institutional buyers. Pricing ranges from approximately $20 for individual accessories to $84,995.75 for the largest commercial panel trees, and the company is actively running promotional discounts of 15–20% on selected categories through 2026. Revenue derives primarily from one-time capital purchases by commercial and municipal buyers, supplemented by an ongoing replacement-parts and accessories stream and a recently launched commercial display repair service. The company has operated without external institutional funding since inception and remains self-owned and founder-operated.
