Element Event Solutions (formerly MacFarlands Events)

Element Event Solutions is a Nova Scotia event and rental partner that helps restaurants, venues, planners, businesses, and private clients deliver events and guest experiences with the right products, reliable service, and local execution. In the East Region, restaurants are an important focus for us, particularly where there is a need for glassware, dishware, cutlery, serving equipment, linens, tables, chairs, and other rental items that support service peaks, special events, weddings, and overflow demand. Our commercial planning for 2026 specifically identifies restaurants as a priority segment to revisit and grow, with an emphasis on driving glassware and dishware volume and supporting their peak periods.

We are built to support both day-to-day operators and more established catering and hospitality teams. Our customer persona work shows that foodservice clients often need quick turnaround, flexibility, style options, and dependable support when their own inventory is not enough or when service requirements change quickly. Larger catering and hospitality clients also value access to higher quantities, delivery and pickup, and a partner they can rely on to execute consistently.

What sets Element apart is the combination of product breadth, local market knowledge, and execution. We are not just a pickup supplier. We work as a practical partner that helps clients solve real event and service challenges. Whether a restaurant needs polished glassware for a holiday function, extra dishware and flatware for a high-volume service period, rental support for a special dinner, or a broader package for an off-site event or wedding, we can scale with the need. Our East Region strategy is built on growing revenue through focused execution, dependable service, and strong local partnerships.

Element also brings the backing of a trusted Canadian brand with deep experience in event solutions. Our broader brand position is rooted in being a trusted and valued partner, offering integrated solutions, local expertise, and a wide assortment of quality rental options across event and furniture rentals, tenting, drapery, and related services.

For RANS members, that means access to a supplier that understands hospitality realities in Nova Scotia and can help restaurants respond professionally when demand spikes, when presentation matters, and when guest experience has to be right.
