Southwest Event Rentals

Southwest Teepee Rental is a local woman-owned-business founded by Susie Tyler Alofs. Although the company is new, the inspiration goes back nearly fifteen years to a teepee themed party that Susie hosted for her corporate clients. When Susie attempted to rent teepees for the event, she found that not only was it impossible to find them in Phoenix but that the closest available teepees were astronomically priced and located in California — so like any good entrepreneur, she made her own. For years she got phone calls about her teepees, and after more than a decade, Susie finally decided to start Southwest Teepee and Event Rental.
