The Toronto-based Grant Sign Group of Companies (GSG) now has the ability to take out-of-home signage from production through to installation and maintenance with the formation of a new digital print division, Grant Sign Imaging Inc. (GSI). The imaging division is headed by CEO Steve Gallow, an owner/partner in the Grant Sign Group, and Will Thomson, president/partner. Before joining GSG, Gallow was SVP/partner at Cieslok Media, which was sold to Titan Outdoor earlier this year. He was previously with Mediacom (now Viacom) and started his own company, GHQ Imaging, in 1993. Thomson has experience on both sides of the border. He worked with Gallow at Mediacom and GHQ Imagining and most recently was director of operations for Prismaflex International, the company that bought GHQ.
Grant Sign’s other divisions are Grant Sign Service, Media Maintenance, and Rite Sign International. In other GSG news, the co has acquired the North American manufacturing and marketing rights for the Rite Sign product line, which includes tri-visions (three-message signs) amongst its products. Bill Mullen, former VP of sales for Rite Sign USA, has been named president of Rite Sign International. Mullen has also worked at Prismaflex International, Gallop & Gallop Advertising, and Mediacom.
