Widd Signs provides a world-class signage consultancy, design, production and implementation service with industry leading maintenance and after-care.
So much more than a sign company…
Founded by award winning sign-writer Arthur Widd in 1888, Widd Signs is one of the most respected architectural and interior signage and brand design firms in the world.
Widd Signs was originally established in Bradford and quickly became a bustling family business with Arthur employing most of his family. Arthur was only a teenager when he started out in the signage business and at the time the industry was made up of freelance sign writers, no one had commercialised the art. Widd saw the opportunity and with great vision created what is today recognised as one of the founding signage businesses for the industry. One of the original sign companies you might say.
