Ontario Made

The rhythmic hum of machinery filled the air as the Church's Chicken sign project took shape. Pride Signs Ltd.'s team, a blend of skilled craftsmen and innovative designers, worked in harmony to bring this vision to life. First, the raw materials, carefully selected for their durability and aesthetic appeal, were fed into the CNC router. With precision, the machine carved out the intricate shapes of the sign's components, ensuring each piece was a perfect fit. Meanwhile, their fabricators meticulously assembled the fascia cabinets, creating the sturdy framework that would hold the sign's identity. In the digital printing department, vibrant colours and sharp details transformed blank panels into eye-catching graphics. Each stroke of the printer, each layer of ink, was a step closer to the final masterpiece. Finally, the finishing touches were applied by Pride Sign’s skilled painters, who meticulously added the finishing touches, ensuring the sign would withstand the test of time and weather. As the project neared completion, a sense of pride and accomplishment filled the workshop. They knew that this sign, a testament to their team's dedication and expertise, would not only identify Church's Chicken but also leave a lasting impression on their team as they accomplished this feat together.
