A SIGN-MAKING firm has gone to drastic lengths to catch the eye of potential customers.

N Sign has taken delivery of its latest advertising weapon – a van parked on the firm’s roof.

The Stockton-based company is hoping that its radical approach of parking a Mercedes van in a very unusual space will reap benefits.

“It’s a great way to advertise our services,”

said company boss Alun Pearson.

“We had to crane the van onto the roof but it is already starting to get attention from potential customers. Hopefully, we will recoup the cost of the putting the signs on and getting it into place with new trade.”
