Social distancing signage from Grapefruit © Grapefruit

Andy Yeomans and Jim Turner started Grapefruit in 2003 and the company has since become the marine industry's go-to graphics and branding experts, branching out to other sporting events such as Wimbledon and Polo in the Park amongst others.

The Covid-19 crisis has caused the cancellation of all large events, wiping out the core of Grapefruit's business, but Andy soon had the team at work producing the social distancing signage and equipment, firstly for the NHS Solent Trust and now available for all clubs, marinas and businesses, whether a part of the marine industry or not, fully branded with your logos and on a fast turnaround.

Contact Andy and the Grapefruit team via grapefruitgraphics.com/contact-us now if you need social distancing signage fast.
