PETOSKEY — Pro Image Design has acquired New Century Signs in Gaylord and expanded its services to include in-house sign manufacturing, UL-listed electric sign manufacturing, vehicle wraps, branding solutions and more.

The acquisition marks a significant expansion for Pro Image Design, strengthening its ability to serve businesses and organizations in the Gaylord area.

Kerri Jozwiak, a key team member from NCS, will stay on as part of the transition. This acquisition represents a new chapter for Pro Image Design, NCS, and the Gaylord community.

NCS has been a trusted name in the sign industry for 40 years, specializing in vinyl decals for boats, storefront windows, post and panel signs, and vehicle graphics for emergency vehicles.

“We are doing an increasing amount of work in the Gaylord area with our locations in Traverse City, Petoskey and Torch River that it just makes sense for us to have a dedicated presence there,” Pro Image Design owner Alan Hubbard said. “We’ve also completed recognizable projects around town including Gaylord Collision, M-32 Enterprise/Diesel Freak, M-32 Storage, and Hogan’s Jewelers, to name a few. We want to be an important part of the Gaylord community and establish a positive physical presence that supports local businesses with high-quality signage and branding solutions.”

Pro Image Design will expand service offerings at the Gaylord location, adding in-house sign manufacturing, UL Listed in-house electric sign manufacturing, vehicle wraps, branding and business identity solutions, electronic message centers, architectural exterior elements and more.

According to Hubbard, the acquisition represents an exciting new chapter for Pro Image Design, NCS, and the Gaylord community and they look forward to serving businesses and organizations in the region with an expanded range of high-quality signage solutions.

“With (Jozwiak’s) vast experience in vinyl design, production and application we are looking forward to learning from each other and growing together,” said Alan. “Her expertise will be invaluable as we integrate NCS into Pro Image Design’s operations.”
