Signwave Australia, a division of Fastsigns International, now has 17 centres across Australia, after new businesses opened earlier this year in Perth and Adelaide. Another new centre is expected to open shortly in Brisbane. 40 percent of Signwave centres have exceeded $1 million in sales.
“The strong results were fuelled by a growing customer base and a focus on full-scale comprehensive signage and display solutions for organisations in industries such as construction, retail, healthcare, industrial and education,” said a company press release.

“Every year, we run an award for the centres to showcase their projects, and every year the projects get bigger and more amazing.” said Linda Sultmann, general manager, Signwave Australia. “It is satisfying to see the group continuing to really own the mid-tier to corporate market space and excel in servicing this market’s needs.
“It’s clear that gratified clients make a positive difference to the long-term financial success of our businesses and we’re dedicated to a continual focus on maintaining that proactive and positive approach to customer service – especially as we expand our Australian network.
“We want people to succeed in our network,” Sultmann said. “We are less about franchising and all about small business ownership success. We really encourage independent sign businesses and print business looking for growth to come and talk to us about how we can fire up their businesses.”
