Major Media came about as a response to the inherent problems within the signage industry and the disjointed nature of the process between client, consultant, designer, project manager, manufacturer and installer. Major Media came forward as a solution to these problems by focusing on the whole process from end to end, under the one roof, and from a client focused position rather than a product or “Moving Boxes” approach. This is why we call ourselves a solutions based company.
