FASTSIGNS^® to Enter Puerto Rico with Five-Unit Franchise Deal

A trio of Puerto Rican business leaders, comprised of Jose Corujo, Teresa Caballero and Juan Rivera, have partnered with FASTSIGNS International Inc. to bring five new FASTSIGNS® franchises to Puerto Rico over the next five years.

The first franchise on the island will be located in Guaynabo, just south of the capital city of San Juan.  The trio expects to launch their initial FASTSIGNS® franchises by converting some of their existing Point of Purchase businesses into FASTSIGNS® franchises; capitalizing on the brand awareness and increased portfolio of services that FASTSIGNS® brings to the table.

"With their current relationships on the island, coupled with their extensive skill sets, Jose, Teresa and Juan will be a tremendous asset to FASTSIGNS® to help the brand successfully grow and develop in Puerto Rico," said Mark Jameson, Senior Vice President of Franchise Support & Development at FASTSIGNS®. "This franchise agreement provides momentum for FASTSIGNS® as we continue to expand internationally."

FASTSIGNS® now boasts more than 530 sign and graphics centers around the world, and continues to expand its repertoire with visual communications solutions, point of purchase, and a variety of other marketing and communications services for small businesses.
