Following yesterday’s announcement from the BFA, we are thrilled to announce that Signs Express have reached the finalist stage in two categories at the forthcoming BFA HSBC UK British Franchise Awards 2024.

Firstly, a huge congratulations to Matt Rutlidge and his team over at Signs Express Central Lancashire for reaching the finalist stage for the Franchisee Trailblazer category, a fantastic achievement after just ten months ownership, testament to their hard work and determination within the industry. Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, setting themselves high-reaching targets and achieving them by delivering trailblazing ideas and innovations, we’re excited to see where Matt takes the business next!

Next up, we’re honoured to reach the finalist stage in the franchisor category for the Business Transformation award. Over the past few years, we’ve worked incredibly hard alongside our network to develop our established business to create a sustainable, future-proof franchise model to take us into our next stage of business growth for both new and existing franchisees. 

We’re humbled to be part of a category focussing on our approach to innovation, business development and profitable business growth plans as we continue to strive to create the best environment for everyone to succeed. In an ever-changing marketplace with technological and economic factors changing the landscape daily, we’re thrilled to see the outputs of our forward-thinking five-year strategy being recognised and commended within the franchising sector. 

A big thank you goes out to our exceptional Franchise Support Centre team, our incredible network of franchisees and of course our customers for supporting us over the past 35 years. 

Overall, our mission remains the same; to continue to deliver award-winning, bespoke signage and graphics solutions, all with outstanding customer care.

We look forward to seeing what the future brings and celebrating the next 35 years!
