WEST PALM BEACH, FL (August 26, 2024) – Signarama®, the world’s leading sign and graphics franchise, announced significant achievements and record-breaking sales for its franchisees in the first half of 2024. The company’s continued success underscores its position as an industry leader and highlights the strength of its franchise model.
With robust demand for Signarama’s products and services, as well as the effectiveness of the company’s franchise support system, Bob Chapa, owner of Signarama Metro Detroit, has achieved multiple $1 million sales months in 2024, building on his impressive record set in 2023 for the most sales in a single year by a single unit franchise owner. Under the ownership of Sami Qureshi, Signarama of Philadelphia, PA has also set a new benchmark, reporting $2 million in sales in single month. Chapa’s Detroit location and Qureshi’s Philadelphia location are among 85 franchises that have qualified for Signarama’s 2024 Circle of Excellence, an accolade earned by achieving $1 million in yearly sales, marking the largest group of qualifiers in the brand’s history.
“We are incredibly proud of the outstanding achievements of our franchisees in the first half of 2024.

Titus, President of Signarama. “As we approach our 38th anniversary as a brand, we’re excited to build on this momentum and continue providing innovative solutions that empower small businesses across the country.”
In addition to record-breaking success, Signarama is proud to announce that its West Palm Beach franchise has made the 2024 Inc. 5000.
