The meeting, hosted by Signfab UK, discussed the topic of product knowledge

Signarama hold quarterly meetings, and Signfab UK provided the space for the firm to hold their most recent event. The meeting was held to enhance franchisees’ product knowledge.

The Signarama UK business support team also offer a network in which franchisees can rely on.

The event took place in Leicester at Signfab UK, and further meetings are held to discuss similar topics such as industry trends and new products.

Signfab general manager Mike Smith says: “It was good to meet so many enthusiastic franchisees with the dedication to succeed, which is a tribute to why Signarama are so successful.”

Many independent sign centres operate in isolation with no-one to call on for business or technical support

On the issue of isolation and support, Signarama UK managing director, Aliyah-Begum Nasser, says: “One of the great benefits of being a Signarama franchisee is being part of a professional, mutually supportive network.

“Many independent sign centres operate in isolation with no-one to call on for business or technical support, but here at Signarama franchisees can get advice from many different sources, our UK business support team, other franchisees and our top-quality supplier partners which include Signfab UK.”

“Although the network keeps in touch regularly using the latest technology such as WhatsApp and Skype, you can’t beat face to face meetings.

“Everyone agrees that it’s worth making the time to attend our national meetings and that they get a lot out of them. Many of the stores are performing ahead of budget, and I am sure the support they receive from us and each other through get—togethers such as this has a big role to play.”
