Premier Food Group Case Study

Supporting Manufacturing Excellence Through Strategic Signage Solutions

Project Overview

As one of the UK’s leading food manufacturing organisations, Premier Foods operates complex, high-performance production environments where accuracy, visibility, safety and navigation are essential to daily operations.

DB Signs partnered with Premier Foods Group across multiple sites to deliver a complete signage solution covering external branding, operational communication, site navigation and bespoke workplace systems.

Working within active manufacturing environments, DB Signs provided a structured approach that supported Premier Foods’ operational standards, health & safety requirements and employee engagement.

The Challenge

Large-scale manufacturing facilities rely on clear communication at every level — from visitors arriving on site to employees working within fast-moving production areas.

Premier Foods required signage solutions that would:

  • Improve site navigation and accessibility
  • Maintain consistent brand presentation across locations
  • Support health & safety compliance
  • Communicate key operational information
  • Improve visibility within busy production environments
  • Provide flexible performance communication systems for teams

All work had to be delivered safely around live manufacturing operations without disruption.


The DB Signs Solution

External Signage & Brand Visibility

DB Signs delivered professional external signage solutions designed to create a clear, consistent and recognisable presence across Premier Foods locations.

This included:

  • Site entrance signage
  • Building identification
  • External directional signage
  • Branded environmental graphics
  • Consistent application across multiple Premier Foods sites

Each installation was designed around durability, visibility and long-term performance.

Site Wayfinding – Indoor & Outdoor Navigation

Efficient movement of people around manufacturing facilities is critical.

DB Signs created clear internal and external wayfinding systems to support:

  • Employees
  • Contractors
  • Visitors
  • Deliveries
  • Operational teams

From entrance points through to production areas, signage was developed to improve navigation, reduce confusion and support a safer working environment.


Bespoke Operational & KPI Performance Boards

Beyond traditional signage, DB Signs supported Premier Foods with custom workplace communication systems.

Bespoke magnetic KPI performance boards were designed and manufactured to help teams manage:

  • Production targets
  • Continuous improvement activities
  • Shift communication
  • Safety updates
  • Operational performance tracking

Providing flexible, easy-to-update solutions built around the needs of modern manufacturing teams.


Delivering Safely in Live Manufacturing Environments

Working inside operational food manufacturing facilities requires detailed planning, professionalism and compliance.

DB Signs supported Premier Foods through:

✓ Contractor onboarding processes
✓ Pre-Qualification Questionnaires (PQQ)
✓ Site inductions
✓ Risk assessments
✓ Health & Safety procedures
✓ Controlled installation planning

Every project was delivered with consideration for production schedules, staff safety and operational continuity.


The Outcome

Through a combination of signage expertise, manufacturing sector understanding and careful project management, DB Signs helped Premier Foods enhance communication, navigation and operational efficiency across their facilities.

The project demonstrates DB Signs’ ability to support large-scale manufacturing organisations with signage solutions that go beyond branding — improving the way sites function every day.
