Leading Sign & Graphics Franchise Continues Overseas Expansion

CARROLLTON, Texas – October 17, 2012 - With more than 25 years of experience in franchising domestically and in other countries, FASTSIGNSInternational Inc. was recently recognized as one of the top global franchises by Entrepreneur Magazine.

The worldwide franchisor of visual communications, signage and graphics centers, with 530 locations in eight countries, was listed by Entrepreneur Magazine among some of the franchise industry’s biggest players, including Subway, Days Inn and Taco Bell. FASTSIGNS® came in at No. 83 of 200, earning a higher ranking than its competitors in the category. The ranking features a list of North American franchisors expanding outside of the United States, and is listed in order according to how they placed in Entrepreneur’s 2012 Franchise 500®, where FASTSIGNS ranked No. 1 in the sign and graphics category. Criteria for the ranking include size, growth and financial strength and stability.

Our goal is to remain a leader in the sign and visual graphics industry by meeting that demand with our full-service visual communications solutions, both domestically and in other countries."

Company executives noted that Eastern Europe is also being targeted as a prime market for growth. FASTSIGNS is currently seeking experienced area developers to augment the company’s international growth efforts.
