Signs Express (Aberdeen) has a new owner in the form of Olive Hamilton. She takes over the reigns from Jim Gifford who opened the operation in 1996 and now intends to pursue a career in politics.
Hamilton, who has previously managed her own business, said of the new move: “With a long history in Aberdeenshire, Signs Express has an excellent reputation and a solid customer base so I was very interested in taking on the opportunity. I could see the vast potential of signs and graphics as every organisation uses them.
“In a recently held survey, 98% of people said that they believe signs and graphics give a positive first impression to a business. In addition, our survey indicated that 77% would prefer to buy locally from suppliers – excellent for my business as we are locally based but have the back-up of a national brand for nationwide requirements.
“With experienced staff in place, and a fully equipped production unit I’m eager to work with new and our loyal existing customer base as I invest in new equipment and aim to grow the business.”
