“At Texas Roadhouse, we strive for legendary with our food and service. Legendary is not just good or great. It’s the best. Our experience with the Olympus team has also been legendary!”
Travis Doster, Vice President of Communications
Texas Roadhouse
"Olympus was huge in helping us design, create, and build the hot dog mascots. We really wanted to keep the performers in mind with vision, durability, and mobility, especially because they are racing mascots. Olympus was very helpful with creating and designing the mascots, so they are not clunky and heavy for running the race 81 times a year."
Eric Gebhardt, Assistant Mascot Coordinator
Cleveland Indians
"We cannot say enough great things about the team at Olympus! We sought out Olympus for our first ever mascot because we had heard such amazing things about the company. The team at Olympus not only met the expectations that we had going into the project, but exceeded them with their professionalism, constant communication and overall delivery of an amazing product. We enjoyed the experience so much that we’re already working on adding another flavor to our mascot team!"

“Olympus Mascots was beyond helpful and so responsive. We were working on quite a bit of a tight deadline, and they were just fabulous in making it happen. They went above and beyond to keep us updated on a status, where we were in the process, how long it should last, and where we would be next. I really appreciated the constant updates and communication.”

“Olympus Group has just been fantastic to work with. After reading about the company, we felt like Olympus Group was the number one company not only in the United States but maybe in the world, and we wanted to make sure this was as professional as any NBA or major college team would have, so we weren’t going to go with anybody less than Olympus Group.”
