Franchisee, Malcolm Lant (Gateshead)

Meet our Franchisee of the Year Malcolm Lant, Signs Express (Gateshead)
Malcolm was named as a Regional Finalist for the prestigious British Franchise Association Franchisee of the Year Awards. The Gateshead centre originally opened in 1998 with Malcolm taking over the centre in 2005, he now employs 6 members of staff from his 3448 sq ft unit based on Dukesway, Gateshead.
Commenting on being a finalist Malcolm said, “Through hard work and determination my team and I have been able to build a very successful, strong business; continuing to provide excellent quality products with exceptional service which has resulted in high levels of repeat business and referrals.”
Franchisees work from custom designed light industrial production units with dedicated vehicle application bays, which provide more flexibility than retail environments and are better suited to the lucrative B2B environment. The management franchise package includes comprehensive training and ongoing support covering all areas of the business. Experienced sign-makers and specialised equipment ensure client requests are completed to the highest standards. From here on, the franchisee receives ongoing support and advice from a dedicated team of over 25 industry professionals at head office; covering all disciplines including technical support, accounts, marketing, IT and operations.
