INVESTMENT: FROM £36,000 Signs of success 5 Reasons why the signage industry (and FASTSIGNS) rules F 38
ASTSIGNS believe that the signage industry is exciting, creative and most importantly, a great opportunity for anyone considering a management-type franchise opportunity. Here’s why…
1. Signs are everywhere – Take a moment and look around you, what signs do you see? Maybe you can see an exterior building sign, vehicle graphics or a menu board. Businesses use their brand to connect to their customers and signage is one of the tools they use to create a visual representation of their brand. Signage also goes further than face value; it
helps deliver important information. In 2023, the results of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry were announced. Off the back of the inquiry report, signage in multi-dwelling establishments, like residential buildings, has had to be reviewed and renewed to comply with the law. This type of signage is life-saving and is a necessity. These are just two examples of how signage
impacts our day-to-day lives. Signage is always in demand.
2. Technology keeps the industry young – If you speak to any long-serving FASTSIGNS franchisees and ask them “How has the signage world evolved?”, they will tell you that before the dawn of digital technology, in the early noughties, signage would be made from layering vinyl, that would be hand-cut and mounted. In 2025, signage is now printed digitally and cut
using precision tools. This is just one of the ways signage production has developed. Technology is at the heart of what FASTSIGNS do, with advancements reflecting customer demand. Today their technology focus is on ensuring franchisees and their teams harness the use of AI to help streamline their processes, freeing up time to work on other areas of their business.
