Hollywood Monster has acquired Sygnet Group, saving a total of 25 jobs
Print and signage contractor, Hollywood Monster, has acquired Sygnet Group with the company’s entire workforce retaining their employment.
This move will see a total of 25 jobs saved by Hollywood Monster, the largest wide-format printing and signage contractor in Birmingham.
Following the acquisition, Hollywood Monster now has 65 employees, a turnover of £12m, and capability to produce over 15,000sq m of signage daily.
A trade supplier, the company says the latest business move will enable it to expand its trade offering further, due to Sygnet’s extensive permanent contract experience in property, construction, events, exhibitions, and retail.
Both family-run Midlands-based businesses, Hollywood Monster and Sygnet Group are said to share a common background with strong manufacturing heritages that span decades.
In addition, both companies are described to have a “pioneering spirit” and a culture that puts people at the heart of what they do, priding themselves on strong customer relationships.
Describing this time as an exciting time of growth for Hollywood Monster, Tim Andrews, chairman of the company, comments: “We’re delighted that Sygnet, which has contributed so positively to the print and signage industry over the last 45 years and which shares our values, can continue to deliver quality, cutting-edge projects as Sygnet Fabrications.
“We are especially pleased that the acquisition will lead to the retention of 25 members of staff, who have tremendous knowledge of the industry and have shown unwavering loyalty throughout their time at the company.”
According to Andrews, Hollywood will be investing a significant amount into the business over the next few years.
