Shopfront Signage in Durban
Turn ordinary shopfronts into Durban landmarks.
The Graphic Co. is a Durban-based signage studio founded by Zubair Karodia, specialising in shopfront signage across KwaZulu-Natal. We design, manufacture and install premium fabricated shopfronts — illuminated lightboxes, 3D channel letters, halo-lit and face-lit acrylic letters, ACM aluminium-composite mounts. Every job is owner-led: same hands on the design, the build and the install. We are not a print-shop. We are the studio you book when the sign has to be a landmark, not just a label.
Illuminated + non-illuminated
Internal-LED lightboxes, halo-lit fabricated letters, face-lit acrylic, push-through letters, or matte non-illuminated mounts.
KZN-grade weatherproofing
Marine-grade ACM, UV-stable acrylic, sealed LED housings, anti-corrosion fasteners — built for coastal humidity.
Compliance handled
Mall and arcade landlord approvals + eThekwini signage by-law liaison built into the install.
