FASTSIGNS Peterborough has been acquired by a consortium of industry experts, with Bill Goss operating as its new general manager
FASTSIGNS Peterborough has been acquired by a consortium of industry specialists led by director at Encompass Print Solutions, Paul Watson, and print industry veteran, Bill Goss.
Part of FASTSIGNS UK’s franchise network now spanning 23 locations, the Peterborough centre has delivered bespoke signage and visual communications solutions since 2005, with clients including local government, construction sites, and large-scale retailers.
The centre will now operate with Goss as general manager, who brings over 25 years of experience including 16 years running his own print provider, WillGo Media. Goss’ background spans traditional print, small-format, and publication printing, as well as wide-format graphics for events and commercial environments.
Joining the FASTSIGNS team as part of its updated ownership structure, Goss will be responsible for overseeing the centre’s day-to-day operations, customer relationships, and the ongoing training and development of the five-strong team.
Commenting on his appointment, Goss says: “Print has been my career for more than 25 years and that experience tells me that the signage, graphics, and visual communications sector is an exciting and evolving industry.
“More so than ever, though, there’s real change afoot. The biggest development, undoubtedly, is the role of AI and its impact on creative industries like ours. Unlike ever before, a deep understanding of our craft is paramount, as are fundamentals like quality, reliability, and collaboration – principles that the talented team here in Peterborough already have.”
Current owner at FASTSIGNS Peterborough, Antony Riley, will now work as a sales professional for the business, with Paul Robinson continuing as sales manager.
John Davies, managing director of FASTSIGNS UK, adds: “We’re thrilled to welcome the team to the FASTSIGNS brand and to see how the new ownership and Bill’s leadership will strengthen the centre and support local businesses across the region.
“I’m confident the centre is well positioned to expand its services, embrace new technologies, deliver creative and sustainable signage solutions, and continue building strong relationships with clients old and new.”
