- Sack Lunch Productions, Inc. Sack Lunch Productions, Inc. (SAKL) engages in event production, film distribution, and health and beauty services worldwide through its three operating segments of Events, Salons, and Other. The Events segment produces and franchises branded experiential events including Color Me Rad, The Dirty Dash, Lantern Fest, Slide the City, and Trike Riot; the Salons segment operates two Aveda lifestyle salons and an Aveda retail store offering wellness and beauty treatments; and the Other segment provides film distribution, development and production assistance services, and real estate activities involving the acquisition, leasing, and sale of commercial and residential properties. Founded in 1987 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, the company targets families, communities, and entertainment seekers primarily in the United States and Canada with a workforce of approximately 83 employees. In January 2025, Sack Lunch Productions eliminates nearly $7.9 million in debt through a landmark settlement with the State of North Carolina, reducing a prior default judgment related to a canceled event from $7.88 million to $95,607 payable over time and clearing barriers to debt, equity financing, and business acquisitions. Previously known as Nexia Holdings, Inc., the company changed its name in April 2015 to reflect its entertainment focus and pursued a non-dilutive 45% stake in Arowana Media Holdings in 2022 to access intellectual properties in films, books, and media including potential adaptations like the novel Wish and the Vampirella series, though recent updates on completion remain limited.
