Outdoor business signs are often the first thing customers notice, so it’s no surprise that cafés and retailers are getting more creative with what they put out on the street. From classic A-frame boards to bold curved panels, here are the outdoor business sign styles we’re selling and seeing most of on the streets.
1. Poster Sidewalk Sign
The Poster Sidewalk Sign is a consistent best-seller and favorite for cafés and shops wanting quick updates. Think of it like choosing your outfit for the day — you can swap the poster to suit the weather, the menu, or whatever’s happening in-store. It’s weatherproof, portable, and stands out on a busy street.
2. Large Sidewalk Sign
The older sister of our smaller A-Frame Sign for when you need to be seen from down the road. With a wide display area, the Large Sidewalk Sign works well if you have some unique branding to display, giving a great canvas for big, bold graphics and decals that catches the eye.
3. Large Letter Sidewalk Sign
Another A-frame family member, the Large Letter Sidewalk Sign is like the previously mentioned Large Sidewalk Sign, but with letters. Genius! It's perfect for changeable messages, coffee specials, sale announcements, or seasonal greetings. The durable build means it can handle being outside all year.
4. Rounded Sidewalk Sign
A softer shape that still makes an impact. The Rounded Sidewalk Sign has been a popular choice with quirky boutique retailers, late-night bars and eateries, and trendy cafés that want something approachable but still professional as their main outdoor business sign.
5. A-Frame Sign
The all-rounder, the OG, the one you'd take home to your mum. The A-Frame Sign has been around for a good time and a long time. It's easy to set up, fold away, and carry inside at the end of the day. A-frames work well outside almost any business, from barbershops to bakeries.
Runners-Up Worth Watching
Large Standing Curve Sign
The curved panel gives this outdoor business sign a modern look while offering plenty of branding space. We’re seeing more of these outside clothing stores and design-led cafés.
Standing Round Sign
Another classic, contemporary sign of ours that continues to make the cut. The Standing Round Sign is modern and compact, great for smaller storefronts, wayfinding signage or as a sleek, modern sign that doesn't demand attention.
Round Sign
A classic circle shape mounted on a wall - why make it complicated? This custom business sign is another modern, design-led sign that suits your architecturally curated business front.
Tall Poster Sidewalk Sign
We took our classic Poster Sign and made it tall. This shop signage is a newer release that's already making its mark, with its height making it ideal for high-foot-traffic shopping streets or market stalls.
Outdoor business signs have come a long way from plain boards with hand-painted letters. In 2025, it’s all about mixing durability with easy customisation — making it simple to update your look while keeping your sign outside in all weather. Whether you go for a large sidewalk sign for maximum impact or a compact round sign for subtle branding, the right outdoor signage can make all the difference in drawing people in.
