About Us

First launched in Dallas, Texas in 1985, we originally offered signs, graphic and visual communication solutions to local businesses. Just one year after launching the business, our founders, Gary Salomon and Bob Schanbaum, realised there was a demand for both their signs and their business model. Their answer to this call from both public and aspiring professionals alike, came in the form of franchising. In 1986 we officially expanded into the franchising sector and began on our journey to become the global brand we are today and reached the UK in 1992.

The Opportunity

Our signage solutions provide businesses with high-quality, high-impact visual resources, including digital signage, banners, building signs, vehicle graphics, windows, walls, doors and floors graphics and so much more. By investing in your own FASTSIGNS franchise, you’ll be joining a business with a proven franchise model and over 33 years industry experience.

FASTSIGNS offers more than just a sign-creation service. You will be involved in providing practical solutions and become a consultant to customers, who are looking to develop their signage and graphics when promoting their business, event or product.
