This week an Auckland florist ordered an A‑frame sandwich board fitted with two custom‑printed, insertable ACM panels for her pop‑up store. She designed the artwork in Canva, shared the template link, and—because we keep production local—the foot path sign was ready for pick‑up within two working days. Her feedback:
“Yes, it looks so beautiful, thank you! Any chance I could grab another 600 × 900 mm ACM sign by Friday—same colours and logo?”

Three Ways Footpath Signs Help Small Home Businesses
- Guide local foot traffic. For home studios from Tauranga to Whangarei, pavement signs placed at driveway entries or busy corners act as low‑cost way‑finders, turning neighbourhood walkers into customers.
- Communicate daily specials. Double‑sided sandwich boards let you promote “Fresh Bouquets Today” in the morning and “Half‑Price Posies After 3 pm” in the afternoon—no need for electricity or wi‑fi.
- Reinforce brand consistency outdoors. Matching colours, logos, and fonts across your website, business card, and sidewalk signs build trust, especially for pop‑ups and weekend markets that rely on quick recognition.
Why Order Your Footpath Sign From Us?
- Durability. We use 5 mm ACM for all outdoor signage; thicker than the common 4 mm so your footpath sign NZ withstands Auckland gusts and Wellington southerlies.
- Speed. Hardware‑only orders dispatch inside 12 hours. Printed sandwich board signs NZ‑wide leave in 2–3 days after artwork approval—faster if you flag an urgent deadline.
- Value & proof. Best pricing on sandwich board Auckland, footpath sign Christchurch, or footpath sign North Island—backed by consistent five‑star Google reviews for quality, delivery, and communication.

Tips for Designing the Perfect Footpath Sign
1. Keep It Simple and Bold
Large type and high contrast help retail signage work at a glance. Avoid overcrowding; focus on one key message.
2. Use Hierarchy
Put your logo or business name first, offer second, and directional arrow last. That structure guides the eye naturally.
3. Test Legibility at Distance
Print a draft A4, tape it to a wall, then step back five metres. If it’s unreadable, increase font size or simplify graphics.
