The sign franchise has powered through a challenging year, and secured the award for the third year in a row.
The winners of the 2021 Global Franchise Awards were announced on April 30th, and everyone at FASTSIGNS was delighted. John Davies, the UK Managing Director, said,
“We are so proud of our network! 2020 was the year for signage to come to the forefront, as the public suddenly needed clear direction, from signage experts, in the face of the pandemic.”
“We’ve had some exceptional opportunities to provide crucial signage for businesses in the UK – from hospitals, to vaccination centres, schools and the high street. It was a challenging year for our industry and I am incredibly proud of FASTSIGNS’ win.”
CEO Catherine Monson also shared her happiness about the win, which made FASTSIGNS the recipient of the award for Best Signage and Communication three years running.
“This is the third year FASTSIGNS has won this award and I am so thrilled. Our focus has always been on our franchisees so, during the pandemic, we partnered closely with them to help drive sales, pivot to new products and services and be the very best we could be. Throughout 2021, we will continue to provide world-class leadership and support.”
