FASTSIGNS aims to open first location in Downtown Buffalo

Earlier this month, Dallas-based FASTSIGNS International, Inc. – which has more than 700 locations across nine countries – announced it's targeting aggressive growth throughout the Northeast and eyeing its first location in Downtown Buffalo.

The award-winning franchisor is seeking entrepreneurs interested in opening new locations, as well as existing print/sign shop owners interested in converting their business to a FASTSIGNS or co-branding with the company. FASTSIGNS attributes its rapid growth to the growing demand for comprehensive signage and visual communications solutions.

"FASTSIGNS' business model is focused on providing custom marketing and graphics solutions for local businesses, so franchisees that operate centers in urban areas are well-positioned to serve the countless organizations right in their backyard," Mark Jameson, Executive Vice President of Franchise Support and Development, said in a press release. "Whether a new center, conversion, or co-brand, FASTSIGNS franchisees in these areas continue to experience strong sales and growth."

Currently, the company has only one area location in Cheektowaga. In addition to Downtown Buffalo, FASTSIGNS is looking to open units in Amherst and Tonawanda.
