Sign-A-Rama Northampton has branded 80 Mercedes Vito vans for easyVan.com, the new low cost van hire service from Stelios, the founder of easyJet.

The vans feature vinyl graphics in easyVan’s orange livery. All the graphics were prepared at the Northampton store before being applied at a transit centre in Tilbury Docks.

Mike Cook, from Sign-A-Rama Northampton, said: “The biggest challenge with this project was logistics.

"We had just two days to fit all 80 vans whilst at the dockside location before their distribution to depots countrywide. Our solution was to prepare the graphics in advance, a team of six of us then worked systematically applying the graphics to half a dozen vans at a time, until the project was completed.”

EasyVan’s marketing director John Sinke, added: “We are delighted with the way in which Sign-A-Rama Northampton rose to the challenges posed by this project. We had an extremely tight deadline which they met and all 80 vans are now in service with Northgate plc, easyVan’s partner and main supplier. ”
