<h2>Manufacture</h2>
Continual investment in leading-edge machinery and the latest technology ensures we have the ability to provide our diverse client base with high-end signage products and applications. Our team of people, many of whom have been with us for more than a decade are fully versed in the latest industry techniques and innovations, and through comprehensive training programmes are kept totally up to date with the latest developments within our sector.
<h2>Installation</h2>
Our installation process includes expert project management and quality-control systems, resulting in an implementation that we have streamlined to be as efficient and timely as possible. Delivery on schedule and within budget are crucial planks of our installation platform. Compliance has become a key element in the process, and our network of installers throughout New Zealand are rigorous in keeping up with local legislation and government directives. Through a vast number of corporate rollouts, we have been able to distil our success down to a few key components:
<li>Transparent, unambiguous documentation of the entire installation process</li>
<li>Total management of all local authority compliance and approvals</li>
<li>Timely scheduling of in-field installations to minimise travel and associated costs</li>
<li>Thorough pre-site assessments allowing for both early I dentification of any potential risk associated with installation compliance and reduced impact of on-site hazards</li>
<li>Communicating with you to ensure that our installation causes minimum disruption to your day to day operations </li>
<h2>Project Management</h2>
From design and manufacture through to installation and in-field service, Sharp Signs’ in-house tracking system allows a seamless flow from one stage of the project into the next and through to project completion. Budget monitoring, regular reporting and constant communication between Head Office and on-site service providers are key elements of this process. Communications with clients are clear and concise, keeping you informed of the various installation processes without overwhelming you with unnecessary detail.
<h1>Corporate Clients</h1>
<h2>Lotto</h2>
After 18 years as a retail icon, the Lotto brand was in need of revitalisation. Sharp Signs’ expertise was called upon from the very early stages of the Lotto makeover, and we have become an integral part of the brand development team. Our key contribution has been to produce a centralised design and manufacturing service for all of the Lotto brand’s standardised signage components. To date Sharp Signs has completed in excess of 100 in-store installations throughout New Zealand and we are pleased to note that the feedback from the franchisees has been phenomenal. As a continuation of this success, we are currently working towards a service for Lotto that will enable each franchise to view pricing, specifications, and to order all signage requirements online.
<h2>Repco</h2>
The high profile Repco brand underwent a serious change-out of look and feel in 2003, and Sharp Signs were asked to deliver a complete corporate signage service for both new and existing Repco outlets across New Zealand. This involved a major reworking of the exterior building branding, a comprehensive overhaul of interior point-of-sale collateral, as well as the creation, execution and implementation of Repco’s bold and distinctive monolith pole signs. Used in conjunction with the other new brand elements, the new Repco imaging makes a strong and prominent brand statement.
<h2>PMSL</h2>
For 15 years the PMSL group have entrusted Sharp Signs with the creation, development and installation of the complete corporate signage requirements for their renowned brands Goodyear, Beaurepaires, Frank Allen Tyres and Yamaha. Global branding compliance has meant detailed corporate standards in quality and consistency have been met for each individual brand, resulting in a range of easily identifiable outlets throughout the country.
<h2>Liquor King</h2>
Winning the 2001 bid to completely rebrand 35 outlets nationwide for liquor retailer Liquor King has been one of the company highlights for Sharp Signs. Awarded the contract due to successful completion of previous work, our ongoing and positive relationship with the client became the basis for which the rebranding process went forward. From creating individual store point of sale through to the generation of large-scale fascias, Sharp Signs’ design team worked closely with Liquor King to produce the bold, new branding which continues to affirm the company’s position as a high profile and successful liquor retailer.
<h2>Lion Nathan</h2>
One of the more rewarding aspects of being a long-term player in the market has been our ability to grow along with our clients. Brewing conglomerate Lion Nathan has long been one of Sharp Signs’ largest corporate customers and has commissioned from us with a wide range of work across a diverse portfolio, which includes international premium beer brands such as Steinlager, Stella Artois, and Guinness as well as local icons Lion Red and the Mac’s brand of boutique beers. Lion Nathan’s requirements are as broad as their portfolio, and we have completed everything from branding for its vehicle fleet through to illuminated signs for its retail partners. We continue to manage on a daily basis the creative brand execution for all of Lion Nathan’s retail, on and off premise signage requirements.
