Excel Entertainment Group Inc.

Excel Entertainment Group came into being in 1995 when Jeff Simpson left his position as an Executive at Disney Studios to become President and CEO of a new entertainment company. Simpson and his partners acquired Embryo Music, Joyspring Records, Lightwave Records and the independent wholesale distributor Excel Distribution. Since 1995, Excel Entertainment Group, INC. Has grown dramatically to become a complete entertainment company.
In May 2002, AC Nielsen EDI ranked Excel Motion Picture Distribution among the top ten of limited release film distributors nationally. Just two years earlier, in March 2000, Excel Distribution had ventured into the world of theatrical film distribution with the release of the independent film God's Army. The film went on to become one of the top-grossing independent films of 2000. Subsequently, in January 2001, Excel Distribution split into two sister divisions. Excel Retail Distribution continues to be a leader in the wholesale distribution of high quality music and video while Excel Motion Picture Distribution handles the theatrical release of independent film. The Motion Picture division has grown rapidly, successfully releasing and marketing films in nearly every market in the United States and grossing over $9 million over four films.
