Signs Express fortifies its operation by investing in personnel
The UK's leading sign franchise, Signs Express, is delighted to introduce four new members of staff to their team at HQ. The two newest staff members have joined the management team to strengthen the company's central support system that is in place for its franchisees. Adam Davison is taking up the role of Northern Regional Manager and David Kerr is filling the role of National Sales Manager.
Adam's role as Regional Manager enables him to support the Northern territories by focusing on the everyday running of each individual business and driving efforts to secure new opportunities. Joining the Signs Express team from another franchise, Cartridge World, where he worked for more than 6 years before becoming their System Development Manager, Adam is experienced in helping businesses to reach their full potential. He is also well-versed in the challenges faced by franchisees and is a British Franchise Association (BFA) Qualified Franchise Practitioner. National Sales Manager, David, has dedicated his career to the sign making industry and collaborated with a Signs Express centre during his previous role. Switching from his position at Baillie Signs in Edinburgh where he was responsible for the complete management of signage roll-out programmes, David's remit at Signs Express is to support the network by helping to grow both national and regional sales. In addition to David and Adam, Signs Express has made two further appointments, both of whom are based at HQ in Norwich. Nick Leamon has taken on the position of Business Support Manager and provides IT solutions, advice and support to the whole network and Head Office. Whilst, Helen Blyth is the company's new Marketing Executive, bolstering the marketing team with her involvement in central marketing campaigns and the facilitation of the marketing plan. Craig Brown, Managing Director of the Signs Express franchise, elaborated on the strategies behind these developments, 'We are always looking for ways to meet the shifting needs of our franchisees as well as the demands of our marketplace. As a result, these new additions to our team mean that we are better positioned to aid our franchisees in the day-to-day running of their businesses.' Signs Express celebrated its 25th anniversary last year and has the largest network of sign production centres in the UK. Many of its centres have been trading for 10 years or more, with 8 celebrating over 20 years under the same ownership. A team of 18 now supports the franchise network by providing advice and guidance in all areas of the business, including sales & marketing, business development, operations, technical support and finance. Due to continued demand for its products and services, Signs Express is still looking for franchisees to join the network in several key locations.

I would like to say a huge thankyou to everyone at Signs Express Swansea, who helped us with a Communication Boards project. Sharon was very organised and professional, taking a site visit to make sure that the boards were the perfect size and well situated. Phil was always reassuring, talking us through the fitting process and confirming delivery. Adam and Andrew were very flexible with delivering the boards for us and fitting them so that they were just the right height to be accessed by all. The boards themselves look amazing, Stuart the graphic designer is extremely talented and made all the right tweaks to fill the space on the boards!
Thanks so much to all of the team, I would highly recommend!

I needed sign writing on my new van. I contacted Signs express and they talked me through a few different price options and discussed my requirements. they pointed out that part of what I wanted would require the use of vinal wrap and explained why. they then sent me some ideas of what my van would look like. I requested to change a couple of bits and very quickly we had designed exactly what I was looking for. I proof checked it and got booked in for fitting. I dropped the van off in the morning and it was ready for collection in the afternoon, looking exactly how I wanted it. I highly recommend signs express, the whole process was excellent.

In January 2023 we made an initial order of some aluminium signage to be displayed in our elevators and communal stair landings. Since this first order, we have continued using the services of Signs Express for the past 2 years and have subsequently ordered a vast array of signage for our site in Leeds. Providing both an excellent service and a high quality product they are now our "go to" company for all our printing and signage requirements. Rick Nurse has always been extremely helpful and knowledgeable when discussing our requirements. His expertise means he is able to ensure all our requirements are exceeded and that we receive the best product. Highly recommended!
