History
Founded by former Disney executive Jeff Simpson in 1995, Excel Entertainment began when four Latter-day Saint-oriented record labels and the separate Excel Distribution company were acquired.[2] On November 15, 2004 Excel and Deseret Book announced they would be merged into one company, with Jeff Simpson taking the role of executive vice president.[3]
