Signarama®, the world's leading sign and graphics franchise, has announced significant achievements and record-breaking sales for its franchisees in the first half of 2024. This development underscores the company's strong position in the industry and the effectiveness of its franchise model.
Bob Chapa, owner of Signarama Metro Detroit, achieved multiple $1 million sales months in 2024, building on his 2023 record for the most sales in a single year by a single unit franchise owner. Additionally, Sami Qureshi's Signarama of Philadelphia set a new benchmark with $2 million in sales in a single month. Both locations are among 85 franchises that have qualified for Signarama's 2024 Circle of Excellence, awarded to those achieving $1 million in yearly sales, the largest group of qualifiers in the company's history.
"We are incredibly proud of the outstanding achievements of our franchisees in the first half of 2024. Their record-breaking success not only reflects the hard work and dedication of our owners but also emphasizes the strength and resilience of the Signarama brand," said A.J. Titus, President of Signarama. "As we approach our 38th anniversary as a brand, we're excited to build on this momentum and continue providing innovative solutions that empower small businesses across the country."
Furthermore, the West Palm Beach franchise made the 2024 Inc. 5000 list with a three-year revenue growth of 87%. Owners Mike and Lino DeFeo earned a first-time spot on this prestigious ranking, solidifying their position among the fastest-growing private companies in America.
"This recognition is an incredible honor for our team at Signarama West Palm Beach," said Lino DeFeo. "We're grateful to our loyal customers who have trusted us with their signage needs as well as our partners at Signarama corporate whose ongoing support enables us to grow," added Mike DeFeo.
Signarama plans to continue its growth trajectory by introducing new programming and strategies. The company recently unveiled plans for its next Masters Academy, designed to help franchise owners amplify efficiency, drive sales, and increase profit. The next series of this on-location training, which offers two days of peer-to-peer learning in an immersive, collaborative atmosphere, is slated to take place this fall.
"The Masters Academy is just one example of our ongoing commitment to franchisee success. We're continually developing new programs, enhancing our corporate resources, and leveraging our industry partnerships to provide our franchisees with a competitive edge," added Titus. "From marketing support and operational guidance to cutting-edge technology solutions and vendor relationships, we're invested in every aspect of our franchisees' businesses. Our goal is to empower each Signarama location to reach its full potential, and the record-breaking sales we're seeing are a testament to the effectiveness of these efforts."
