Sign specialist secures £250,000
A company that provides signs for the retail, commercial, leisure and public sectors has secured a six-figure investment.
D&H Sign Manufacturing, which lists Waitrose, Bovis Lend-Lease, the Royal Mail and Woolworths among its clients, received £250,000 from YFM Group’s Yorkshire and Humber Equity Fund.
The company, which designs, manufactures, installs and maintains signs, will use the funding to expand its business by moving into new markets and gaining new clients.
YFM’s team was led by investment director Mark Hunter, who said the fund was impressed by the quality of D&H’s management, their growth plans and the company’s portfolio of customers.
D&H produces full wayfinding systems and all types of retail signage with its in-house manufacturing capabilities, including full metal engineering, paint shop, screen printing, engraving and CNC acrylic and metal cutting.
The company is the signage provider for The Channel Tunnel Rail Link stations and the London St. Pancras station re-development as well as the new PFI Queens Hospital project in Romford.
D&H also provides environmentally friendly signs, which use low energy LED illuminations and self powered renewable energy signs. The company was established in 1908 and today has operations in Leeds and Milton Keynes.
