    • Sykes Signs

      Apr 2000 - now
      Provider of signage and promotional advertising material.

      Sykes Signs was established in 1970 in the CBD of Harare offering sign writing services to organisations. The company was bought by my husband and myself in 1994 and we moved our offices to Graniteside in 2000. Sykes Signs employs 12 staff. We manufacture signage and promotional advertising material to local organisations. In 2009 we imported machinery that allows us to dye sublimate onto fabric allowing us to make flags, flying banners and sports kit. My background has been in the hotel and catering industry which allows me to use my organisational skills fully as well as alowing me to easily interact with customers. Apart from being involved in the overall day to day running of the organisation I am responsible for the financial side of the business. Show less
