Sale signs are a classic print job: bold colours, big numbers and fast impact. Boldmedia Print Zimbabwe prints sale posters, hanging signs, wobblers and window stickers. We can produce them as one campaign pack.
Sale signs announce discounts and clearance events: percentage-off messages, end-of-season sales, closing-down sales, Black Friday and stocktake clearances. They appear as window vinyl, hanging boards, posters, banners, shelf strips and pavement boards, and are usually bold, high-contrast and colour-led, often red, yellow or the retailer’s brand colour.
Good sale signage is seen from the street, repeated inside so shoppers find the sale stock, and removed promptly when the sale ends so it keeps its impact. Sale signs differ from special offer signs in scope: a sale is usually a store-wide or category-wide event, while a special offer highlights a specific product or deal.

Supplying measurements
Send window sizes for vinyl, ceiling heights for hanging signs and the number of sale sections. Photos of the shopfront and interior help us suggest quantities and sizes.
Artwork requirements
Supply print-ready PDFs with bleed and outlined fonts, or send the sale wording, percentages and your logo and we lay out a set of signs that match. For recurring events, generic designs without dates can be reused.
Survey and installation
Window vinyl can be applied for you or supplied for your staff to apply, and removable vinyl is recommended so it comes off cleanly. Hanging signs are supplied with hooks or cord, and banners with eyelets.
Maintenance
Store reusable boards flat and dry between sales. Remove window vinyl promptly after the sale, starting from a corner, to keep the glass clean.
Frequently asked questions
Can we reuse sale signs every season?
Yes, leave out dates and specific percentages, or use replaceable stickers for the figures.
Will window vinyl damage our glass?
Removable vinyl is designed to peel off cleanly within a reasonable period; leaving it up for long stretches makes removal harder.
Can you supply sets for several stores?
Yes, matching packs can be produced per store and packed separately.
