“We’re so much more than a sign company; we are a visual communications provider that helps bring ideas to life and communicate messages in an effective way,” Quick said. “No matter what the visual communications challenge may be, our team is more than ready to help.”
In the bigger arena of franchises, FASTSIGNS International, Inc. has begun 2016 with plenty to celebrate.

"All investors want to minimize their risk, especially when exploring a franchise opportunity. That is the essence of The Franchise Gator Top 100, to identify opportunities that display signs of minimal risk, such as a history of continued growth, franchisee satisfaction, low turnover, and of course strong financials," stated Eric Bell of Franchise Gator. "FASTSIGNGS displayed all of the characteristics we look for when choosing a top franchise, and we are excited for them to occupy the top spot. We think budding franchisees should be just as excited when exploring the FASTSIGNS franchise opportunity."
