The History Of Sovereign Signs

1988

• Incorporated in June 1988.
• First rented premises on South Orbital Trading Park, known affectionately as the Gateway to Europe.
• In view of the Humber Bridge.
• Started in 1 Unit but due to increased growth eventually rented 4 Units on the Trade Park.

• Wickes Home Improvements was one of the first High Profile National Accounts won spanning locations in the UK, Europe, and South Africa.
• Other Brands of note include we worked on included; Ann Summers, Carpetright, Harveys, Mothercare, Pizza Hut, Tesco, TK Maxx, and Tesco.

 

1994

The nineties were fantastic for Sovereign Signs and the business was very successful. Showing no signs of slowing down we went from strength to strength, securing new clients as well as retaining existing ones.

• Due to our increased growth in 1994, we felt the time was right to move to a purpose-built Unit in Sutton Fields.

 

2000

In 2000 a fantastic investment opportunity came about and we took on a re-development Project of an existing Commercial Unit turning the Unit into our current home ‘Strata House’

 

2000 - 2018

During this time further growth offered us the opportunity to expand our Group of Companies to offer our Clients the whole turnkey solution. During this time the rise of digital led to us further investing in the latest technologies available. Securing new clients as well as retaining existing ones we worked hard to ensure all Projects were done ‘The Sovereign Way’.

• A new Branding Image for Sovereign Signs was also on the cards during this period.

 

Pre-COVID 2018 - 2020

Pre-COVID we collectively refocused on our Strongest Companies, Sovereign Signs, and Pearlgreen Engineering, stripping back the Group to its key elements. Focusing on our retained Contracts we were again in a strong position to offer first-class customer service at a highly competitive price.

 

Post-COVID 2021

As the World begins to return to somewhat normality, we have again set our focuses on the key elements of the Group. Winning Major Contracts with the likes of Currys has shown us there is life after COVID.

• New fleet vehicles were ordered and branded.
• Plans to invest in new printing technology are being realised as well as the constant training and investment in our team members.
