Trafford is offering local businesses the opportunity to capitalise on the high profile areas within the borough with quality signage which will also contribute to the vitality of the local environment. Raise the profile of your business locally and become involved in your community.

Promoting businesses on lamp post banners along major roads and highways, and close to some of the most influential brands and attractions in the borough will ensure increased awareness of your business and the prospect of escalated sales and profits: the perfect blend of corporate and environmental awareness. Working together with your local council will ensure a cost effective mutually beneficial agreement.

Lamp post banners are available on key routes in Old Trafford, Sale and Altrincham. For more information, please contact our Advertising Co-ordinator and Development Officer using the details at the bottom of the page.
