Successful Restaurant | Signage

Many entrepreneurs opened restaurants in 2017. From the fall of 2016 to the fall of 2017 over 26,000 new restaurants were opened by well intentioned owners.* Of the 647,288 open restaurants in the fall of 2017, 190,649 or 29% are quick service restaurant franchises and 31,480 or just 5% are full service restaurant franchises. That means that 66% of the restaurants open in 2017 were independent full service restaurants. If you’re a part of this 66% you understand the veracity of the competition in the food industry. It’s not just the food that brings people to your establishment, it's the whole experience. If you plan to open a restaurant in 2018 you have your work cut out for you and we're here to help.
Opening a new restaurant can be a daunting task. One thing you can not forget is your marketing. Once you’ve taken care of your business plan, funding and creating your menu you can turn your attention to the marketing aspect of opening your new business. Designing the look and ambiance of the space is one of the most important tasks. A huge part of this is your signage.

Signage for your establishment runs the gamut from bathroom wall plaques, so everyone knows where to go when they have to go, to the pole or monument sign out front. Branding and your unique look can set you apart from your competition and attract new foodies and bring back previous customers who enjoyed the experience. Everything from the colors you choose to your menu boards, wall signs and floor decals can make for a fun and relaxing experience for your customers.
Once you know the signage you’ll need it’s a great idea to contact a sign company who does every type of sign on your list. In this way you’ll protect your brand from differences in color, style and fabrication for a smooth seamless look and feel, one that your customers will talk about and want to enjoy again and again.
