FASTSIGNS International, Inc.

As a growing $29 billion industry, signage and graphics will be in demand as long as businesses need to inform, direct, and sell — and FASTSIGNS International, Inc. is the leading sign and visual communications franchisor in North America, with more than 700 independently owned and operated centers in nine countries. FASTSIGNS is known in the industry for equipping its franchisees with tools to help them succeed and continues to be recognized for its exceptional franchisee satisfaction. FASTSIGNS has a special incentive for first responders, including paramedics, emergency medical technicians, police officers, sheriffs, and firefighters, which includes a 50 percent reduction on the franchise fee — a savings of $24,875.

“After being a first responder for 38 years, I was looking for a change that challenged me,” says franchisee Russ Mason. “Many first responders are very mechanically inclined and business-minded, and the FASTSIGNS business model is well suited for self-motivated and hands-on individuals. FASTSIGNS gives you the tools to be successful and supports its franchisees by giving you the best opportunity for successful growth.”
