TORONTO ON – June 1, 2023 – Pattison Sign Group (PSG) today announced it has acquired Chandler Signs, a national, vertically-integrated provider of sign design, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance for multi-site companies. The acquisition will bolster PSG’s capabilities and footprint to help clients tap into more expertise, solutions, and services to accelerate their branding transformation for rapid growth.
