Buy a SpeedPro Franchise

SpeedPro is a business-to-business large-format printing franchise that produces high-impact visual graphics: vehicle wraps, wall murals, trade show and event displays, building and retail signage, and branded interior environments. Studios serve commercial clients across nearly every sector, including corporations, healthcare, education, government, real estate, hospitality and event venues.

Founded in 1992 and franchising since 1996, SpeedPro operates more than 150 studios across the United States and Canada under a territory-based model. Each studio runs as an on-demand light-manufacturing business with standard Monday-to-Friday hours, modest staffing needs and a turnkey equipment and software package that lets new owners begin production quickly.

The model is built around repeat B2B accounts rather than one-off retail sales, supported by national vendor pricing and proprietary production systems. SpeedPro recruits relationship-oriented operators, many from corporate backgrounds, and trains them to run a studio without prior printing experience.

Why buy a SpeedPro Franchise?

SpeedPro is the leading B2B large-format printing franchise in North America, and buying a SpeedPro franchise gives an owner an established brand in a category that has proved resilient across economic cycles. The work is project-driven but built on repeat commercial accounts, giving studios a base of recurring client relationships rather than purely one-off sales.

The ownership case rests on practical structural advantages: standard business hours instead of retail evenings and weekends, a low employee count to open, national vendor pricing that supports strong gross margins, and the Buddy Studio program, which lets new owners begin selling before their studio is fully operational. Studios serve blue-chip clients including HP, Salesforce, Coca-Cola and DHL alongside local businesses, hospitals and universities.

SpeedPro – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    New owners complete two weeks of training at SpeedPro's home office in Denver, covering equipment, production, software, accounts and business fundamentals, with a Studio RoadMap guiding owners from start-up toward six figures. Ongoing support runs through SpeedPro University online learning, field consultants by phone, webinars, email, success groups, regional meetings and the annual SpeedPro Convention, plus managed marketing (social, email, SEO, website). Resale buyers should confirm what transfer training and SpeedPro University access the franchisor provides when studio ownership changes.

  2. Ideal Owner

    SpeedPro suits relationship-driven operators comfortable selling to and managing business clients, rather than hands-on printers. The model is B2B sales-led: owners spend their time building commercial accounts, networking across local industries, quoting projects and managing a small production team, while the franchisor handles printing know-how. No graphics or printing background is needed. Strong candidates are organised, customer-focused and comfortable with consultative selling and account management, and many come from corporate or executive careers seeking to run their own scalable business.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    SpeedPro has ranked in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 every year since 2009 (verified again for 2026) and is named among Entrepreneur's top franchises for veterans. It earned Franchise Business Review Franchise Satisfaction Awards in 2025 and 2026, and ranks in the Franchise Times Top 400+, having placed #2 for sales growth in the printing, graphics and signs category. SpeedPro Canada won the Canadian Franchise Association's Best-in-Class award for training, support and franchisee success for ten consecutive years. The brand also holds IFA and VetFran recognition.

  4. Industry / Market

    SpeedPro operates in the US sign and large-format graphics industry, valued at more than $30 billion, with steady year-over-year growth driven by demand for high-impact visual marketing such as vehicle wraps, event displays and branded signage. Demand spans almost every commercial vertical, from corporations and healthcare to education, retail and event venues, which spreads risk across sectors. The B2B, project-plus-repeat-account nature of the work gives studios broad, recurring sources of demand that resale buyers should weigh against local competition and account concentration.
