Fusion Sign and Design

What Fusion Sign and Design does

Fusion Sign and Design is a full-service commercial signage company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Riverside, California. The company designs, fabricates, and installs custom signage for commercial, multi-family residential, single-family residential, quick-service restaurant (QSR), and municipal end-markets, serving both local businesses through individual offices and national brand programs coordinated through dedicated national account managers. Named enterprise customers include Chipotle, Domino's, KFC, Carl's Jr., Popeyes, Dunkin', Del Taco, Arby's, Wienerschnitzel, KB Home, Richmond American Homes, Oakwood Homes, Meritage Homes, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, Dutch Bros Coffee, Big 5 Sporting Goods, and Pep Boys, with the company reporting more than 5,000 companies served.

The company operates in-house production capabilities spanning metal fabrication (cutting, bending, welding, and assembly of steel and aluminum), CNC operations, large-format printing, an automotive-quality paint shop using the Matthews Paint System, and a sewing department for banners, flags, and awnings. A centralized project management platform coordinates design, fabrication, permitting, shipping, and installation across multiple markets simultaneously, supporting nationwide rollout programs for enterprise clients. The technical differentiation rests on integration of design, fabrication, and installation under one operating model with a vetted installer network following standardized procedures, safety checklists, and reporting protocols.

Fusion Sign generates revenue through project-based, quote-based contracts for fabrication and installation services, with priority pricing tiers (Standard 5-7 days, High Priority 3 days, Rush 24-48 hours). Distribution is operated through 11-plus directly operated or partner-operated offices across California, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, and Florida, supplemented by a vetted subcontractor installer network. Channel partnerships include Texas Republic Signs (Houston), Bakers' Signs (Conroe, Texas), and Southeastern Lighting Solutions (Daytona Beach and Gulf Breeze, Florida). Leadership is anchored by Principals Dave Haffter and Loren Hanson, with VP-level coverage of sales, sales & marketing, and operations.
