About ProSigns
Prosigns began in 1991 as Sign and Art Supplies, specialising in pinstripes and simple vehicle signage and over the years developed into vehicle wrapping and building signage. Peter began the business and over the years it has slowly grown to include more than just van and car wrapping. ProSigns has helped businesses redesign their brand with logo design and building signage, locally and nationwide. We’re happy to be offering competitive pricing and are always happy to help.
Mark joined the business as a co-owner in 2012. ProSigns work with a lot of local trades businesses incorporating the design and doing their vehicle signage. As a local Dunedin business, we’re happy to do anything from a small decal on the car door, to a fully wrapped vehicle, right through to large scale building signage, down to footpath signs, and print media.
The staff at ProSigns are experts at vehicle wraps, building signage, and print signage. You can bring your design to us and we can match it, or we have an inhouse design team who can create branding for you. Check out the team at ProSigns and come visit us at 4 Strathallan Street, Dunedin, to talk about your options or give us a call on 03 455 6613.
Peter Rae – Co-owner
In 1991, Pete and his wife started a business from home called Sign & Art Supplies selling product to signwriters. This started well but soon a demand for vehicle detailing (pinstripes, graphics and moulding) took over our time.
Over time, we were asked to make vehicle badges and small signs and ended up purchasing a vinyl cutter to support manufacture. From there the company has grown, and that first vinyl cutter was the start of what the company is now.
The most satisfying thing about ProSigns for Pete is seeing their work on vehicles and buildings when driving around and getting repeat business, even from the first year they started.
Outside of work, you’ll find Pete spending time with family and friends, playing golf or fishing.
Mark Collie – Co-owner and Manager
Mark started working at ProSigns in 2006. He always had an eye for good design but has developed the knowledge and skill needed to execute good design through hands-on experience. Mark is hardworking and driven. He’s ready to meet the challenge of taking ProSigns to the next level in Dunedin and further afield.
The team at ProSigns are what really make the business for him, they’re a good group who work well together. No two days are the same. The sheer amount of design work they produce, taking designs from rough sketch on a piece of paper to a bold and colourful building around town, is incredibly rewarding.
Outside of work you’ll find Mark spending time with his wife and young family or keeping fit through playing golf and running.
