- Started in 1894 by Edward Maritz as the E. Maritz Jewelry Manufacturing Company, which would be the first to sell wristwatches.
- It also specialized in selling engraved and imported jewelry from around the world.
- After the company's near-failure resulting from the 1929 stock market crash, the group re-vamped itself by focusing on employee reward programs for companies, in addition to their jewelry.
- In the coming decades, the company expanded greatly by adding travel programs and marketing research companies.
- Today, Maritz claims to be the world's largest source of performance improvement, travel and market research services.
- The world corporate headquarters consists of 174 acres, which spreads across both sides of I-44.
