New owner welcomed at Signs Express (Gloucester)

Signs Express (Gloucester) is under new ownership after its successful purchase by Ben Walker, who has taken on his second territory with Signs Express. Ben acquired the business following outgoing franchisee Daryll Lillie’s decision to sell the company, having been at the helm for 10 years.

An experienced businessman, Ben is also owner of the successful Signs Express (Bristol) centre and is excited to expand his portfolio, aware of the opportunities the franchise offers. His knowledge and dedication will be a great asset for his new venture, with a fresh outlook and enthusiasm that will see new investment and an ambitious plan for growth.

Ben’s takeover will also see an official name change for the company to Signs Express (Gloucester & Cheltenham) in recognition of the opportunities within the area.

Ben said: “This is a very exciting opportunity, and I can’t wait to get started. I feel positive, Daryll has built a fantastic base for us to push the business to even greater heights. 

“I will continue to provide the service and products customers have come to expect from Signs Express (Gloucester) and hopefully welcome some new clients.”

Jonathan Bean, Managing Director of Signs Express Ltd, commented: “Having seen Ben take on the Bristol centre and continually grow and expand I am very confident he will continue his excellent work with the Gloucester business.”

Signs Express (Gloucester) will provide a large range of signs and graphics to both small and large businesses from every sector. The team specialise in vehicle graphics, including decals and partial and full wraps for any type of vehicle or fleet.
