Also, as America's Oldest Full-line Independent Record Store, The Exclusive Company has seen the music industry transition from 78s to digital downloads.Prior to opening the doors of its first retail location in 1956, The Exclusive Company’s founder and current president, Mr. G., got his entrepreneurial start in the early ‘50s by selling records out of the trunk of his car and at flea markets. A few short years later, in 1956, Mr. G. opened the first Exclusive Company location on Main Street in West Bend, WI.

Since all the major distributors had offices and warehouses in Milwaukee, Mr. would drive from West Bend early on Saturday mornings to the warehouses to stock up on all the newest LPs. Soon thereafter, portable audio equipment was introduced at The Exclusive Company, like a Columbia portable turntable that was modestly priced at $29.99. Expanding the inventory even more, Mr. decided to begin stocking full stereo systems such as the latest and greatest console stereos along with televisions. With the success of the West Bend store, in 1957 The Exclusive Company traveled north to the bustling Main Street of Oshkosh, WI to open its second store and eventually its corporate offices. After opening stores in West Bend and Oshkosh additional stores followed during the boom of the compact disc. During these times the stores thrived as The Exclusive Company sold 1 out of every 700 CDs sold in America as people traded in their LPs and cassettes for the newer technology. This period of time was also the pinnacle of The Exclusive Company’s legendary midnight sales that garnered the attention of national media. One of the more notable midnight sales was for the ‘93 release of Pearl Jam’s debut follow-up, “Versus.” During that midnight sale, crowds swelled at Madison’s State Street store, located in the middle of the University of Wisconsin campus, to the point where the store’s front windows broke due to the hundreds of people who were sardined inside while trying to grab the newest release by Eddie Vedder & Co.
