Visual lands six-figure local authority project

Lincoln-based Visual Print and Design has announced details of a new six-figure deal to manage the production and installation of signage for Buckinghamshire Council following its recent rebrand.

The local authority project began earlier this year, with print and design firm Visual helping the Council to rebrand more than 50 sites across the region.

Bringing together the county and four district councils, the government in May last year set out plans for a single unitary council including a brand-new name for the organisation, Buckinghamshire Council.

Following in-house development of the branding, the new logo was agreed and unveiled by the Council in October last year, with the unitary council coming into effect from April this year.

Emma Denley, previously head of communications at Buckinghamshire County Council and the lead for the rebranding project, says: “The new Buckinghamshire Council logo symbolises a new beginning at the same time as bringing the current five councils together towards a shared future.

We believe in the importance in setting up strategic partnerships to benefit the economy

“We’d like to say a massive thank you to Visual Print and Design for their hard work in helping us roll out our new look across the County this year, especially when progress was delayed at the start due to the lockdown.”

Visual has been working with the Council since 2017, with the latest project building on this relationship.

Graham Hunstone, managing director of Visual, adds: “Since the start of the year, we've been managing the installation of hundreds of signs across more than 50 sites for Buckinghamshire Council to help them with the transition of multiple councils coming together.

“We believe in the importance in setting up strategic partnerships to benefit the economy and it’s been a pleasure collaborating with another local business to fulfil Buckinghamshire Council’s requirements.”
